Bradwell is a small village and civil parish in the district of Braintree in the county of Essex, England. It sits within the more rural, arable landscape of north Essex and has the compact feel of an English village with historic roots and a mix of older period houses alongside more modern homes.
Historically agricultural, the local economy is now largely residential with many people commuting to nearby centres; the village relies on the facilities and employment of the larger town of Braintree and benefits from reasonable rail and road links for travel towards Chelmsford and London. Community life is typical of small Essex villages, centred on local amenities, groups and the surrounding countryside.
