About Much Hadham
Much Hadham Parish Council represents the areas of Much Hadham, Perry Green and Green Tye.
Much Hadham is situated in East Hertfordshire between Ware and Bishop’s Stortford. The historic village is set along a mile long road making it one of the longest villages in England, with numerous amenities such as a very good pub, a village shop, a museum and a garage.
The attractiveness and tidyness of the village has been rewarded with the prestigious title of Hertfordshire’s best kept village.
Many of the houses are of architectural interest with the earliest houses dating to the 15th century. Many of the iconic buildings of the village have retained their external character and names such as ‘The Old Bakery’ and ‘Collarmakers House’
The village has two churches. The larger parish church, which was built largely between 1225 and 1450 is an ecumenical serving both the Catholic and protestant communities.
There is also a very good parochial primary school called Saint Andrews which serves the majority of the children in the village. There is also a nursery situated in the grounds of St Andrews.
Annual Parish Meeting
Each year, the Parish Council hosts an ‘Annual Parish Meeting’ which enables the Parish Council to explain to electors what it has been doing over the last year and to provide an opportunity for electors to have their say on anything they consider is important to the people of the Parish.
In recent years, prior to the ‘formal’ part of the meeting, local groups, clubs and organisations have provided displays of their work for residents to see what is happening in the community and provide opportunities to join in.
Minutes of the formal meeting are taken and can be accessed below:
19 May 2020 – no meeting due to COVID lockdown
