North Shoebury is part of Shoeburyness, a suburb of the city of Southend-on-Sea in Essex, England. North Shoebury was historically a separate village and parish. The civil parish was abolished in 1933, when the western part of the parish, including the village itself, was absorbed into Southend-on-Sea, and the eastern part of the parish was added to Great Wakering. Although abolished as a civil parish, North Shoebury remains an ecclesiastical parish. The area around the small village of North Shoebury saw extensive development during the 20th century, and it and Shoeburyness have become part of the built up area of Southend.
