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.

Uttlesford Urban Design codes for new building: workshop day

by | Oct 20, 2022 |

We have been asked by UDC to publicise a workshop day to discuss the setting out of the Uttlesford Design Code. This will be a planning document used by local people, planning officers and developers in the preparation and assessment of planning applications for new development. The aim will be to improve the design quality of new developments in the district.

The event is on:

Saturday 22 October 2022 – St Mary’s Parish Church, Saffron Walden CB10 1JP 

The purpose of the day will be to share the aims and ambitions of the Design Codes and to hear feedback from across the district. Workshops will discuss the buildings, places and landscapes that create Uttlesford’s distinctive character and how these could inspire how future developments should be designed. UDC will also report back on what local people have said so far.

Activities include:

  • All-day drop-in exhibition
  • Coach tour with local architect and historian Mike Hibbs (free, booking essential) 9am-1pm
  • Presentation and workshop discussion 2pm-5pm
