Hartshorne Parish Council

Hartshorne Parish Council represents the residents of the parish, including Lower Midway and Goseley Estate. Parish councils are the lowest layer of local government, sitting below district councils (South Derbyshire District Council) and county councils (Derbyshire County Council).

Annual Parish Council Meeting

After an absence of two years, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are pleased to invite all parishioners to attend the Annual Hartshorne Parish Meeting on Thursday 12th May 2022 at the Dethick Hall, Manchester Lane (next to the Bull’s Head) at 7.30pm (Tea and biscuits available at 7.00pm).

The Annual Parish Meeting presents an opportunity for Hartshorne parishioners to hear about activities within the parish during the last 12 months. A report will be presented by the Parish Council Chairman to include the Council’s finances. Reports will also be received from clubs and organisations operating within the Parish. Parishioners may bring to the meeting any local issues of general concern.

Parish Council Website

Due to Government requirements for all levels of UK governance websites to be more accessible, the Parish Council have commissioned a new website to meet these obligations.

The site is work in progress, and will continue to develop throughout 2022.

Parish Council Newsletter

The Parish Council have produced a newsletter for 2022 and all residents should have received a copy. (Unless you live in a gated enclave with no public access)

Parish Council Meeting

The next Parish Council Meeting will be held on the 13th June 2022 at 7:00pm in the Hartshorne Cricket Club Pavillion.

All Parishioners are invited and welcome to attend the meeting. 15 minutes are provided at the start of each meeting for public representatives to make their views known to the Council.

Councillors from both South Derbyshire District and Derby County Council regularly attend the Parish Council Meeting.
