Our point of view on planning
The parish council is an important consultee for the District Planning Authority, which is part of Cotswold District Council (CDC). This means that we are notified of all new planning applications in the parish and asked to provide any comments by a strict deadline. The final decision is then taken by CDC as the local planning authority.
​
You can view all current planning applications under consideration by CDC in detail here, including consultee comments.
We also include details of planning applications and the council’s comments in our monthly meeting minutes. If you have any questions regarding planning, please contact CDC on planning@cotswold.gov.uk or telephone 01285 623000.
​
We understand that planning a burial at a time of bereavement can be especially challenging. As a council, we’re here to help make the process
run as smoothly as possible.
Funeral Directors please note we have extemely limited plots remaining therefore funerals/burials should not be arranged without prior checking that there is a plot available.

Please note the reservation of plots is no longer possible due to limited space in the cemetery.
