Parish Plan and Policies

Parish Plan

The Parish Plan for the village, which represents residents' views about what they wish to see happen in the village over the following 5-10 years, was distributed to every household. The Plan is based on a survey of all households carried out in October 2010. The Plan contains Action Plans for many areas of village life, such as housing, environment, roads and facilities and many of the actions are the responsibility of the Parish Council. We will be making sure that we will deliver as much as we can of this vital Plan. If you would like a copy, please email the Parish Council and we will send you one.
