Stretching out over nine acres of Essex countryside between Halstead and Braintree, the Gosfield Shopping Village is former family farm that now hosts an array of independent shops under one cover and on one level. Open seven days a week, the complex also boasts a restaurant, a farm shop and an antiques and collectors barn. The independent shops are varied, from a Natural Twist; which is a company specialising in handmade bath and body products, to 'Bags of Class', a classy shop for classy ladies.

In addition to the shopping centre, there are eight acres of grassland that make an ideal space for horse and dog shows, caravan rallies, country fairs, the list is endless.

The restaurant and tea room in the courtyard serves a selection of sandwiches, jacket potatoes, Panini, salads and all sorts of snacks to restore the diminished energy levels from a hard days shop! Extremely popular are the monthly yard sales, they operate on the same principle as car boot sales just in the yard and are held on the first Sunday of each month. Open from 9 am till 5 pm each day although the shops are independent and so opening times may differ.
