Nevendon is an area in the Borough of Basildon in Essex, England. It was formerly a parish and village. The village historically comprised loose-knit development along the road from St Peter's Church in the south up to the moated manor house of Nevendon Manor in the north.
The A127 road was built through the village in the early 1920s, severing the two ends of the village from each other. The civil parish of Nevendon was abolished in 1937. In 1949, the part of Nevendon south of the A127 was included in the designated area for the new town of Basildon. That area, which includes the part of the old Nevendon village around St Peter's Church, now forms part of the built up area of Basildon. The part of the old Nevendon village north of the A127, including the area around Nevendon Manor, now forms part of the civil parish of Wickford.
