Welcome to the Parish of Great Casterton

Welcome to the web site of the Parish of Great Casterton, a village of some 365 people on the eastern edge of Rutland.

The Parish Council consists of a Chairman and four Councillors who meet about every two months in Casterton Business  & Enterprise College. The date and the agenda for the meeting is posted on the notice boards and on the meetings calender on this web site a week in advance.

As an elected body we are responsible to you, the people we represent. Attending a council meeting is the best way to find out what we do. Look in the Meetings Calendar to find dates for our public meetings.

Where do we get our money from?

Each year a sum of money called a 'precept' is collected through your council tax. This money is used by the Parish Council to improve facilities and services for local people.

Other details

Maps and details of the Parish Rights of Way, ecological sites, ancient monuments and ancient woodlands are in the Parish Services,Planning  Maps section.

A history of this historic village, along with its beautiful Norman church can be viewed on this web site.
