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

Help us bring the first Felsted Village Show to life!
Following the fantastic response to our idea for a traditional village show, Felsted Parish Council is putting together a volunteer organising group to help make it happen.
We’d love to hear from residents who would like to get involved in planning our inaugural show -bringing together local groups, businesses and residents to celebrate village life, keep rural traditions alive and create a brilliant community event for all ages.
The working group will meet both online and in person, so you don’t need to be able to attend every meeting or have any previous event experience. We’re simply looking for people with ideas, enthusiasm and a little time to help.
Our first meeting will take place one evening in September, when we’ll start shaping the plans together.
🌿 Interested in joining the organising group?
Please email ku.vog.cp-detslef@krelc to register your interest.
We’d love as many parts of the village as possible to be represented. Please share!
