South Hill Parish Council

The next meeting of the Parish Council will take place on Tuesday May 16th at 7.30pm At St Samson's Church at South Hill. The Agenda for this meeting can be found on the Parish Council Meetings page. South Hill Parish Hall Work to install a Ground Source Heat Pump and a new floor at the Parish Hall in Golberdon has now started. This is a much needed refurbishment and modernisation project which will improve one of the main Parish assets. Grant funding has been obtained to cover the costs of the project and so no money has been added to the precept to meet this expenditure. This does mean that the Hall will be closed to the public for the course of the project which started on April 1st. There is also a small amount of external ground works required for the heating system and this will involve closing the recreation field whilst trenches are dug and pipes installed. Therefore, the April Parish Council meeting will be held at St Sampsons Church as stated above. Please get in touch if you have any questions. Footpaths Councillor Andrew Budd has been doing sterling work getting the insurance and materials in place for us to maintain the footpaths and public rights of way around the Parish.
