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.

Repairing our village sign
Some of you might be wondering where the village sign has been these past few weeks.
Well, it has been suffering from the weather and looking a little worse for wear, so we had it taken down for some care and attention. Along with new oak supports, the sign itself has received a clean and repaint by our own Parish Councillor, Roy Ramm.
The work will ensure this important focal point for the village is protected, enhancing the look of our historic conservation area for years to come.
This is the ‘before’ picture:
