Foxearth is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Braintree, Essex, England. Tucked close to the Suffolk border, it sits among rolling farmland, hedgerows and narrow lanes, with a scatter of traditional cottages, a parish church and a village hall forming the social heart of the community.
Historically agricultural, the parish retains a tranquil character and an active local life with seasonal events and village activities; many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Halstead and Sudbury, while the surrounding countryside is popular with walkers and anyone seeking a quiet slice of north-Essex rural life.
