Mancetter Parish Council

Serving the People of Mancetter and Ridge Lane



What does the Parish Council Do?


Mancetter Parish Council owns the picturesque Mancetter Village Green, Mancetter Cemetery and Ridge Lane Allotments. It pays to maintain these, along with St Peter's Churchyard and the entrances to 11 miles of rights of way and rural footpaths.

The Council values local people, and where possible uses local contractors. Thank you Rob, Barry and John for your hard work and dedication.

They employ a part time clerk and responsible financial officer as a legal advisor to help implement the work of the Parish Council.

The Parish Council is a burial authority with sole responsibility for the upkeep and management of Mancetter Cemetery.

There is a rented office base in Mancetter Memorial Hall, so that members of the Public can pre-arrange a face to face visit to discuss an issue as well as using the phone, email and website addresses.

Launched in 2022, Mancetter Parish Council also has a Facebook page to share information via social media.

The council is consulted regularly by North Warwickshire Borough Council and Warwickshire County Council about matters affecting the Parish that come under their jurisdiction.

Importantly, it acts as the voice of parishioners with those councils, the police and a number of other organisations over matters concerning the Parish.
