Kimble Stewart Hall Wednesday 7:30 pm View Details

Great & Little Kimble cum Marsh Parish Council

Great & Little Kimble cum Marsh Parish is set in the beautiful Vale of Aylesbury at the foot of The Chiltern Hills in Buckinghamshire.

Each and everyone of our councillors welcome you to our rural parish. We are situated on the northern edge of the Wycombe District, with rich lower farm land to the North rising into part of the magnificent Chiltern Hills to the South.

The 394 homes are well spread across 1,212 hectares. The main settlements are Smoky Row, Clanking, Marsh, Kimblewick, Little Kimble and Great Kimble.

The southern part of the parish is within the Chilterns Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty and The Green Belt – an area representing nearly 25% of the parish. The rest is most attractive too, and we strive to keep it that way.

The National Trust owns the land around Pulpit Hill. There is a network of public footpaths and bridleways from which to explore the varied countryside within the parish.

The population is growing, with many young families now taking the numbers to just over 1,000 (988 in the 2001 Census).

Buckingham Household Recycling Centre reopens this week

Following the successful completion of essential drainage works, Buckingham Household Recycling Centre (HRC) will reopen this week.

It’s been closed since before Christmas to allow for these important site works which have now been completed on schedule.

The council put in place interim arrangements during the closure including picking up additional household waste from homes with residents able to use branded sacks for this purpose. Residents in the north of the county have also been able to access Milton Keynes HRCs at Bleak Hall and New Bradwell by appointment only – this arrangement is still available until Tue 31 March.

As the works that have taken place involved drainage works they are not directly visible and it’s important to note that there is no change to any arrangements on site.

The site will be open this Thursday (26 March) from 9am andas with all HRCs, will move to summer opening hours from 1 April.

Ade Osibogun is Buckinghamshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Environment, Climate Change and Waste. He said:

“We thank residents for bearing with us during this closure and hope it hasn’t caused too much inconvenience. I thank FCC Environment and staff for setting the site back up to open as planned. The site will operate in exactly the same way as previously and we look forward to welcoming back our customers from Thursday and don’t forget to check our website for our opening hours and advice on recycling and waste. Given that we’ve been closed for some weeks, we could see the site busier than usual so I’d advise you to check the webcam for up to date info on queues and how busy the site is.”
