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

Uttlesford New Local Plan consultations
Uttlesford District Council has now begun the process to produce a new Local Plan for our district.
The previous draft plan was rejected by the government Inspector. This has led to a new approach from the current administration, starting with a number of public consultations and the creation of a stakeholder group.
9 consultations in all will be undertaken, with the first, ‘Where you live’ now open for comment.
The consultation website can be accessed here.
We would encourage residents to engage with the Plan process and have your say now, as policy is developed.
