Hinxton Millennium Committee was established to organize various events for the village to celebrate the year 2000. Also money was raised to commission a millennium stained glass window at the west end of the parish church of St. Mary and St. John.
In addition, a village history book was written and published, with the help of a grant from Help the Aged. The book was launched during the weekend of 9th and 10th September 2000, and a copy was given to every household in the village.
By the year 2007 there were no copies of the book left, so in September 2008 the original was scanned and put on disc for the benefit of generations to come.
