Map of the UK

Little Canfield is a small rural parish in the district of Uttlesford in north-west Essex, England. Set among rolling arable farmland it lies close to the A120 and within easy reach of Stansted Airport, with the market towns of Great Dunmow and Takeley nearby.

The village has medieval roots and retains several listed farmhouses and timber-framed cottages that reflect its agricultural past; today its economy mixes farming with a commuter population drawn to surrounding towns and London, while a small, tight-knit community is maintained through a parish council and occasional local events rather than many commercial amenities.
