Hazeleigh is a small, rural civil parish in the district of Maldon, Essex, in east England. Its landscape is characterised by low-lying farmland and hedgerows with views towards the nearby coastal saltmarshes of the Blackwater estuary; settlement is scattered rather than nucleated, giving the area a quiet, agricultural feel and an intimate connection to the surrounding countryside.
Historically it has deep roots in the medieval parish system and retains a handful of older buildings that hint at that past, while today the local economy is largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns for work. Social life is modest and village-oriented, with local events and services often shared with neighbouring communities in the Maldon area rather than concentrated within the parish itself.
