Village Highlights

The name Hayton means "hay farm," a nod to our agricultural roots. A leisurely stroll around the village reveals lovely old stone cottages and the historic St. Mary Magdalene Church, parts of which date back to 1780.
The Famous Walnut Tree
Our village green is home to one of the oldest walnut trees in the country – a true local landmark and also close to the pub.
