About the Council


We look after the Village and try to keep it in good order. We are responsible for grass cutting and maintaining the Recreation Ground, Glebe Field, Village Green and run the two allotments areas. We are also responsible for the children's play area at the Recreation Ground and the Memorial Bench. We liaise with the District and County Councils on numerous matters, often raised by your good selves. Through the support of USCAN we maintain Cud Hill Common and public footpaths and we are responsible for providing the bus shelters in recent years. We have a paid Clerk to the Council who is the responsible Officer. He maintains the accounts, carries out all correspondence on behalf of the Councillors and officiates at Council meetings. He has an office at the Village Hall and manages the website which was been commissioned by the Parish Council.

The Council itself operates through smaller sub-committees including Environment and Planning. All planning applications made by householders, or developers come first to the Parish Council for their comments which are then sent to Stroud District Council Planning Department who is responsible for making the final decisions.
