Heybridge Basin is a village and civil parish about 1 mile from Maldon, in the Maldon district, in the county of Essex, England. In 2018 the built up area (which includes Osea Island) had an estimated population of 732.[1] The parish was formerly part of Heybridge parish, on 1 April 2020 it became a separate parish.[2]
Heybridge Basin is where the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation Canal merges into the tidal Blackwater Estuary, fed by the rivers Blackwater and Chelmer. The two rivers are joined by a lock which is regularly used by pleasure boats.[3] The Basin was constructed in 1796. By 1799 there was a hamlet.[4] Heybridge Basin was designated a conservation area on 21 January 1975. The conservation area has 8 grade II listed buildings.[5]
The Heybridge Basin area was struck by an F0/T1 tornado on 23 November 1981, as part of the record-breaking nationwide tornado outbreak on that day.[6]
