Finchingfield is a village in the Braintree district in north-west Essex, England, a primarily rural area. It is approximately 6 miles from Thaxted, further from the larger towns of Saffron Walden and Braintree.
There has been a settlement in Finchingfield since historical records of the area began. There also is archaeological evidence for a Roman villa 400 metres south-south-west of the village church. The place-name 'Finchingfield ' is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as Fincingefelda, a name that means 'the field of Finc or his people'.
The village was an official stop for horse-drawn coaches travelling from London to Norwich.
