Newport is a small village and civil parish in the district of Uttlesford, in rural Essex, England. Set among rolling arable fields and hedged lanes, it retains a quiet, historic character with a medieval parish church, several listed buildings and traditional cottages that hint at its agricultural origins.

The local economy remains largely rural with farming alongside households who commute to nearby market towns and cities; community life revolves around the village hall and occasional village events, and the area is popular for country walks and heritage sightseeing, being within easy reach of the market town of Saffron Walden and some of Essex’s larger transport links.
