Welcome

Your Parish Council would like to take this opportunity to offer you a very warm welcome to Farringdon, in the lovely South Downs. Neighbours usually become your first contacts and source of information but please feel free to contact any member of the Parish Council for assistance. Members of the public and villagers are encouraged to attend Farringdon Parish Council Meetings and can speak during the ‘Question Time’ at the  Council Meeting. If you want to speak at the meeting, please let us know what you want to say, by contacting the Parish Clerk. Planning Decisions are made by East Hants District Council and NOT the Parish Council. Farringdon Parish Council only makes a recommendation to the planning department after reviewing the individual planning proposal

The Parish Clerk can be contacted via email: [email protected] or you can contact the Parish Councillors direct via email: [email protected]
