Bowers Gifford, a quiet parish, breathes the low, wide skies of Essex. It lies 4.7 km east of Basildon (from Basildon: bearing 96°T, OS grid TQ 747 882), and is situated south-west of North Benfleet village.

The parish church, St. Margaret's, stands as a quiet sentinel, its stone a familiar presence against the passing seasons. A sense of enduring quietude pervades Bowers Gifford, a feeling of roots holding firm in the rich, dark earth.
