Parish Council Meeting

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).

Planning volunteers needed now!

The Chilterns are under intense and growing pressure from over-development, and we urgently need more local people to help protect our nationally important landscape.

Planning Volunteers Needed – Protect the Chilterns

The Chilterns are facing unprecedented development pressure. Housing targets and weakened planning protections are putting the Green Belt, landscape, and local character at risk.

The Chiltern Society's Planning Group challenges detrimental planning applications, whilst supporting appropriate development. Our work is respected by planning authorities and is often included in decisions.

We can currently cover only 60% of parishes. That is not enough. We need more local volunteers — WE NEED YOU!

No planning experience is required. We provide training, support and expert guidance. All that's needed is a passion for your local area.

If you care about the Chilterns, this is your chance to make a real difference.
