Castle Point is a local government district and borough in Essex, England. Its council is based in Benfleet.
It was formed on April 1, 1974 by the merger of the Benfleet Urban District and the Canvey Island Urban District. The name of the new district contained references to the principal landmarks of the two combined urban districts: Hadleigh Castle and Canvey Point. The district was granted borough status in 1992.
