Braintree and Bocking was an urban district in Essex, England.

It was created in 1934 as a merger of the old urban district of Braintree with the neighbouring parish of Bocking.

Such local boards were reconstituted as urban district councils in 1894.

At the same time there were also some adjustments to the boundaries with the neighbouring parishes of Black Notley, Gosfield, Rayne and Stisted.

[6] No successor parish was created for the former Braintree and Bocking Urban district and so it became an unparished area.
