Berryfields Parish Council

The Parish Council, formed in May 2015, was elected for a period of 4 years.  Our Councillors work to represent the interests of Berryfields Parish and its residents.  We meet on the third Wednesday of each month with the exception of August and December at 7.30pm in the Community Rooms.
The PC is gradually taking over play areas and amenity land in Berryfields which will ensure it is effectively managed and maintained in good condition for the benefit of all as well as some dog waste and litter bins.  These include Berryfields Green and Marston Brook at present.
Please get in touch if there is anything we can do to help - we are always delighted to hear from Parishioners, if we can't help we will put you in touch with the appropriate Authority or department.  

Current projects & plans

You told us you were concerned about speeding:

MVAS message

Berryfields and Watermead Parish Councils have purchased an MVAS (Mobile Vehicle Activated Sign) to record speeding drivers which will be placed in strategic sites in the villages.  ​

Volunteers operating Community Speedwatch

OUR SENTINEL SPEEDWATCH DEVICE HAS NOW ARRIVED. OUT FOR OUR VOLUNTEERS OPERATING THE DEVICE AND REPORTING SPEEDERS TO THE POLICE!​
VOLUNTEERS STILL NEEDED!


​Community Speedwatch is a scheme giving villages a hand held speeding device provided by the Police which a team of volunteers will operate in areas where speeds are excessive.  The device transmits data to the Police who will send a letter to first offenders, and follow up with a decision on prosecution after second and subsequent reports.  This is another valuable tool in the fight against speeding.

We hope that these initiatives will help us control speeding in the Parish. We have volunteers but if you would like to join the team please let us know.​
