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

A message from Kemi Badenoch, MP for the Saffron Walden Constituency:
“I understand that rural crime can have a huge impact on our communities, and I want to know if you have been affected. Too often rural crime goes unreported and we need accurate information to help reduce it across our constituency. Please take a few moments of your time to complete my survey and share your concerns.”

Linsell’s Shop and Post Office Update
Linsell’s Shop and Post Office will be closing on Sunday 20th August at 12-00pm for major refurbishment and will re-open on Saturday 26th at 9-00am.
Newspapers will be available to purchase from under the Archway leading to the Church from 8-00am to 11-00am each day that they are closed.
The main purpose of the work is to replace outdated refrigeration with modern, more energy efficient units.
During the week commencing 21st August all the old equipment will be removed and the new equipment will be delivered.
In order to reduce the amount of disruption this may cause to the village centre, the Parish Council have authorised Linsell’s to use Woodley’s Car Park to temporarily store this equipment.
Therefore, the six spaces in Woodley’s Car Park will be unavailable for parking from Monday 21st to Friday 25th August inclusive.
Linsells apologises for any inconvenience these works will cause and would like to thank residents for their understanding and customers for their continued support.
