Trumpington is a village on the outskirts of Cambridge, England. It is located on the southwest side of the city and borders Cherry Hinton to the east, Grantchester to the west and Great Shelford and Little Shelford to the south-east.

The village was a separate parish from Anglo-Saxon times until the twentieth century. In 1912 all of the land north of Long Road was transferred to Cambridge, and in 1934 the majority of the remaining land, including all of the village, was also given over to Cambridge. Only 382 acres, almost uninhabited, were transferred to Haslingfield parish. The present Trumpington ward of Cambridge City Council also incorporates the Newtown area of the city, north of the historic parish boundary.

Trumpington is a historic home located at Rock Hall, Kent County, Maryland. Its Georgian plan main house is of Flemish bond brick construction five bays long, two rooms deep, and two and a half stories high. A -story brick wing is attached. Also on the property is a log plank meathouse, a 19th-century granary, a small cemetery, a 20th-century barn, and mid-20th-century frame cottage.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
