Introduction

Great Horkesley Parish Council looks after the needs and environment of an Essex village set between Colchester – Britain's Oldest Recorded City – and the River Stour. The north of the parish lies within the Dedham Vale and Stour Valley National Landscape. Great Horkesley Parish Council makes decisions on behalf of the people in the village and plays a vital part in the community. Your local council is the first stop for concerns and ideas to improve your village​​​​​​ as a place to live, work and play. We will help by escalating issues to the authorities up the line, being Colchester City Council and Essex County Council.
