Great Totham is a rural village and civil parish in the district of Maldon, Essex, in eastern England. Sitting on higher ground between the Blackwater Estuary and the surrounding arable countryside, the settlement is split into North and South clusters and enjoys wide views across salt marshes and farmland.
The village combines historic cottages and a traditional parish church with more modern housing, a village hall, pubs and active community groups. Agriculture still shapes the local economy while many residents commute to nearby towns; regular fetes, walking routes and easy access to the estuary make it popular with people who want countryside living close to Maldon and other Essex centres.
