Wivenhoe is a riverside village which lies to the east of Colchester on the banks of the river Colne in Essex. It has a long history of shipbuilding which ended in 1986 when the last shipyard closed.

Houses now occupy the sites of the old shipyards and Wivenhoe can boast of a thriving community which is popular with writers and artists.
