Great Holland is a village in the civil parish of Frinton and Walton, in the Tendring district of Essex, England.[2] It is to the north-east of Holland-on-Sea, and west of Frinton-on-Sea. The village is served by a bus service to Clacton-on-Sea to the south and Kirby Cross, to the north. The village is served by two churches: a Methodist church and the Church of England parish church of All Saints. There is a community-owned pub called The Ship Inn. At the 2021 census the built up area as defined by the Office for National Statistics had a population of 509.
Great Holland was an ancient parish in the Tendring hundred of Essex. The parish was abolished in 1934, when its area was merged with the neighbouring parish of Kirby-le-Soken and the two urban districts of Frinton-on-Sea and Walton-on-the-Naze to become a new urban district called Frinton and Walton.[3] At the 1931 census (the last before the abolition of the civil parish), Great Holland had a population of 623.[4]
