Langenhoe is a village in the City of Colchester district of Essex, England, located south of Colchester. According to the 2001 census it had a population of 536, increasing to 572 at the 2011 Census.[1]

The village church was once reputed to be amongst the most haunted buildings in Essex.[2] This ancient church, which had been damaged in the Essex earthquake of 1884,[3] was closed to worship in 1955 and demolished in 1963 after it was deemed structurally unsafe.

The name Langenhoe is from the Old English for ‘long hill-spur’.[4]
