Wicken Bonhunt is a small, rural village and civil parish in the district of Uttlesford in Essex, England. It sits amid gently rolling arable countryside and hedged fields, a scattered settlement rather than a compact village, and lies within easy reach of market towns such as Saffron Walden and Bishop's Stortford.

Historically the area has medieval roots and retains features of old field patterns and a parish church at its heart; the local economy is traditionally agricultural while many residents now commute to larger centres, with Cambridge and London accessible from nearby transport links. The community is small and quiet, with local life revolving around church and village events and an interest in the locality’s rural and archaeological character.
