PoshVillage feelFamily-friendly

Wickham Bishops is the most distinctive part of the Heybridge cluster, a proper village with period properties, tree-lined lanes and a settled, professional population. The £500k house prices and strong owner-occupation put it firmly in affluent territory, and the low crime rate is consistent with that. It has more in common with villages in central Essex than with the more functional residential areas closer to Maldon town. The village feel is unmistakable and it is a classic place for families who want space and character without being remote.
