Ailsworth or Ailesworth is a village and civil parish in the City of Peterborough unitary authority, about {{convert|4.5|mi|km}} west of the city centre. The parish is part of the former Soke of Peterborough, which was considered geographically part of Northamptonshire until in 1974, following the Local Government Act 1972, it became part of Cambridgeshire.

In the 2001 census the population stood at 413 (188 households)[2] and this has increased to 559 (248 households) in the 2011 census[1]

History

The village's toponym comes from the Old English Ægeleswurth. The Domesday Book of 1086 records it as Eglesworde meaning "an enclosure of a man named Agel".[3]

The common lands of Ailsworth and the neighbouring parish of Castor were not enclosed until 1898.[4]

The village sign (pictured) celebrating the Golden Jubilee of the local Women's Institute was erected in 1981 on the boundary with the neighbouring village of Castor.[3]

The £9 million dual-carriageway Ailsworth and Castor Bypass, which is part of the A47 road, was opened in September 1991.[5]

Churches

Ailsworth lies in the ecclesiastical parish of Castor.
