Margaretting is a small village and civil parish in the Chelmsford district of Essex, England, set in rolling arable countryside to the south‑west of Chelmsford. The landscape is typical Essex farmland with the small valley of the River Wid nearby, and the village retains a mix of timber‑framed cottages, period houses and more modern homes.
Margaretting has a long history reflected in its medieval parish church and quiet lanes; community life centres on the village hall and local pub, while the local economy blends agriculture with commuter households. Many residents travel to Chelmsford or to London using nearby rail links at stations such as Ingatestone, so it combines a rural feel with easy access to larger towns.
