Washingley is a minor hamlet in Huntingdonshire, along the lane to the west of Folksworth and very close to the border with Northamptonshire. It shares the parish of Folksworth & Washingley with its neighbour.

There are old earthworks to be seen in the field here, the overgrown remains of a motte and bailey, which are a hint of the castle and village which once stood here, now vanished.
