WELCOME TO FELSTED
Located in north-west Essex and with a population of around 3,000, the Parish of Felsted has at its heart the historic village of Felsted, surrounded by Greens and Hamlets, in a beautiful rural setting.
Felsted retains the underlying charm and attraction of a rural parish, with the community and village at its heart. This is what attracts people to the area and what we as the Parish Council see as our historic duty to protect. Preservation of our heritage is balanced with a duty to ensure that the Parish thrives and meets the future needs of our community.
Winner of RCCE Village of the Year 2015

Free Property Marking Event
Essex Police is organising a free property marking event at the Old School Community Centre (& Café), Dunmow Rd, Takeley on Saturday 18th May from 10am to 1pm.
Essex Police will be giving advice and marking up any tools and equipment brought along. Having tools marked helps deter theft, makes it more difficult for stolen equipment to be sold on, and makes it easier to reunite tools with their owners.

The Parish Council has approved excavation works in the Nature Area by Mulberry Homes to facilitate the installation of a high voltage power connection and a foul drainage connection to existing services that are located within the Nature Area.
These will facilitate the Bury Farm site development, including the new Felsted Health Centre.
