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.

Maintaining our footpaths: the Felsted Parish Paths Partnership (P3) group
Our Parish is crisscrossed by miles of footpaths. Whilst the County Council is responsible for their upkeep, it often comes down to the willingness of local residents to maintain vital access.
As part of a new initiative, a Parish Paths Partnership (P3) group, led by Diane Shepherd and under the supervision of Uttlesford Ramblers P3, recently replaced 3 waymarks.
This picture shows the team working on footpath 79. Next week they will move on to footpath 110.
There are so many ways in which we rely on the goodwill and hard work of volunteers to keep our Parish clean, enjoyable and accessible to all.
We thank all of you for your hard work.
