Welcome to the website for Berrington Parish Council.

 

The next meeting  Parish Council meeting will be held on Thursday 5th June 2025 starting at 7.00pm for more details please see agenda page nearer the time. 

 

At the  April meeting we said goodbye to five of our members who decided it was time to retire . Between them they had over 100 years experience on the Council. We were sad to see them go , they will be sorely missed . Their local knowledge was invaluable and will take some time to replace.

The council presented them with flowers and their favourite tipples to say thank you.
