It can be confusing to know which council is responsible for what services in the village.

Parish and town councils are part of local government in Northamptonshire together with the North Northamptonshire Council.  Each is responsible for different things.

The Parish Council is responsible for – streetlighting, the bus shelter, benches, the village noticeboard, the telephone box (defibrillator), some trees, verges and maintenance, grit bins and dog bins.

North Northamptonshire Council is responsible for – local services including housing, local planning, environmental health and refuse collections, as well as strategic services such as highways, education, libraries, social services, strategic planning and refuse disposal.

Highways problems – if you wish to report problems such as potholes, overgrown verges, or problems with footpaths, you can report on line using the following link:
