About

Maldon North encompasses the residential streets rising to the north of the historic town centre. The area is characterised by Victorian and Edwardian cottages, many built for miners, set along lanes that follow the natural contours of the hill. This elevated position provides clear views across the rooftops of the town below and towards the surrounding countryside of the Dengie Peninsula.

A key feature is the presence of the Maldon Mud Race course along the riverfront at its southern edge. The terrain here transitions from the urban settlement to open fields and the expansive marshes of the Blackwater Estuary. This creates a distinct boundary where the built environment meets a wide, tidal landscape.
