Howe Green is a small village in the district of Chelmsford, Essex, England, lying just off the busy A12/A130 junction a few miles from the city centre. It retains a quietly rural character with a scattering of traditional farmhouses and cottages alongside more recent housing, so it often feels like a halfway point between countryside and town.

The community is largely residential and commuter‑oriented, with many people working in Chelmsford or travelling on to London, and a modest mix of light industry and services clustered near the road. Its agricultural roots and nearby lanes make it pleasant for country walks and equestrian activity, but most everyday amenities are found in the nearby town rather than in the village itself.
