Stapleford is a popular village due to its proximity to Shelford train station and the south side of Cambridge. The village is home to the Stapleford Granary, a study centre for the arts and music where it hosts concerts, lectures and events which are open to all and offers space for educational activities and courses.  On the road to Haverhill is Middlefield, a house formerly known as Mount Blow which was used as a nursing home for injured soldiers during the first world war. There is a primary school in the village with the local secondary school, Sawston Village College, just over 1.5 miles (2.41 kilometres) away.
