Seend Cleeve is a large hamlet or sub-village immediately west of Seend in Wiltshire, England. It lies about 2.3 miles (3.7 km) southeast of the town of Melksham.

A Primitive Methodist chapel and Sunday school were founded in Seend Cleeve. In 1849, the chapel was rebuilt in red brick with ashlar quoins. The chapel closed in 1979 and was converted into a private house in 2012.

Seend Cleeve Quarry was a source of brown haematite. Since 1987 the quarry has been a Geological Site of Special Scientific Interest.
