Countryside

Braintree District covers some 236 square miles of largely rural land and is one of England's largest districts so there is plenty to explore!

From scenes that inspired Constable, to a disused railway line walk, water and windmills, there are plenty of places to discover the beauty of Braintree District. 

We’re also home to home to Essex's longest play trail at Great Notley Country Park which offers the perfect family day out.
