About us
A Parish Council is a fundamental tier of local government, serving as a democratically elected authority representing the parish.
As an official entity, we are accountable to you, the electorate.
We provide a cost-effective way to exercise local control over various matters, such as maintaining roads, ditches, hedges, and footpaths within the parish.
We stay informed about planning applications affecting the parish and can influence the decisions taken.
We liaise with the District and County Councils on issues impacting the parish and build relationships with community organisations like the police, school, and cricket club.
Council elections are held every four years.
For further inquiries or information, please contact the Parish Clerk.
