WELCOME TO FELSTED
Located in north-west Essex and with a population of around 3,000, the Parish of Felsted has at its heart the historic village of Felsted, surrounded by Greens and Hamlets, in a beautiful rural setting.
Felsted retains the underlying charm and attraction of a rural parish, with the community and village at its heart. This is what attracts people to the area and what we as the Parish Council see as our historic duty to protect. Preservation of our heritage is balanced with a duty to ensure that the Parish thrives and meets the future needs of our community.
Winner of RCCE Village of the Year 2015

The Parish Council have been made aware that a company has been sending out payment requests for renewal of “Business Directory” advertising. The emails say that they are from “Felsted Parish” and come from the email address ku.oc.hsirap@troppus-ecivres. Please be aware that they are nothing to do with Felsted Parish Council or the Felsted Focus.
The company has concerning reviews on Trustpilot. The reviews can be read using the link: https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/parish.uk
