Rivenhall is a village and civil parish near Witham in the Braintree district in the English county of Essex. It is near the small settlement of Rivenhall End.[1] In 2021 the parish had a population of 1147.[2]

It has a primary school called Rivenhall Church of England School. For transport there is the busy A12 nearby and Witham railway station.

The Anglo-Saxon church of St. Mary and All Saints and the nearby manor house have been in continuous human use since their origins as parts of a Roman villa.[3] The church is a grade I listed building.[4] The church was presumed to have been built around the 8-9th century.

It also had a Royal Air Force airfield called RAF Rivenhall.

On 1 October 1933 the civil parish was abolished and merged with Witham which became unparished in 1974. On 1 April 1982 Rivenhall became a parish again.[5]
