Parish Council

Parish Council meetings take place on the second Monday in January, March, May, July, September and November and are held in the Institute Hall, Higham Road. Meetings start at 7.30pm and all residents and members of the public are welcome and encouraged to attend.

The Parish Council also holds an Annual Parish Meeting in April to whom all organisations from within the village are invited to attend and give a report on their past yearly activities.

Parish Council meetings are a useful way to find out more about the community in which you have chosen to live. It also gives residents an opportunity to raise matters of concern.

Agendas for parish council meetings can be found on the notice boards located by The Anchor pub in Upper Street and by the footbridge of the River Stour (known locally as the Weir), Lower Street.
