Tolleshunt Knights is a village and civil parish[2] in the English county of Essex.

The parish has a Parish council, and is in the area of Maldon District Council.[2] It borders Tiptree, Layer Marney and Salcott cum Virley within the Colchester Borough Council's District and Tolleshunt D'Arcy also within Maldon District. Prior to Tiptree Parish Council being established in 1934 much of the Tiptree Heath area was within the boundaries of Tolleshunt Knights.
