About

The Hedingham, Gosfield and Greenstead Green area sits in the north of the Braintree district in Essex, composed of small villages, farmland and lanes. Castle Hedingham contains a 12th‑century Norman keep at Hedingham Castle, built for the de Vere family; the keep and its stonework are visible from the village centre and anchor local history. Village services cluster around small high streets and parish churches, with signs of agricultural use on surrounding fields.

Gosfield lies a short drive to the north-west and is centred on Gosfield Hall, a mid-16th‑century manor with a walled garden and parkland now used for events and private functions. Greenstead Green sits between arable fields and hedgerows, with cottages, former barns and a network of minor roads that link farms and hamlets. Local lanes connect the three communities to nearby towns while retaining a pattern of field boundaries, ponds and hedgerows that reflects long-standing land use.
