A resident has lost a black purse with white stitching and would very much like to get it back.

If found, please bring it into the Parish Office and it will be returned to its rightful owner.

The parish council finds a variety of items at its facilities which are usually taken to the Parish Office for safe storage. We have keys; purses; gloves and glasses. Items of clothing left in the changing rooms are left there for owners to recover. We can only keep items for a limited period of time and from now on anything unclaimed after 3 months will be given to charity or thrown away. We have not yet thrown away any personal items collected in the last 12 months so if you have been looking for something please check with us as soon as possible.

Notice of Uncontested Election

A total of 8 persons have been elected unopposed for the 15 available seats and will take office following an uncontested election on 4 May 2017.

The names of those elected may be viewed by clicking on the file link below.

The Council will be seeking candidates for co-option to fill the 7 vacant seats immediately following their Annual Council Meeting to be held on 8 May 2017. The Council has until 23 June to co-opt to fill these vacancies. Anybody interested in standing for co-option should contact the Parish Clerk, who can provide information about the role of Councillor. Tel 01743 874651 or email baystonhillpc@hotmail.com. Candidates must be either electors of the parish or have their main job in the parish. The Parish Clerk can give further details about eligibiity if required.

There are also two seats for Young Councillors aged 16 - 18. We have no Young Councillors at present so the Council is very hopeful that young people will step forward to take a lead in their community. This would be an excellent addition to a CV for any student interested in working in the public sector.

Phase 3 of the traffic management scheme affecting Meole Brace Roundabout will come into effect on Friday 11 March 2017. For about 3 weeks vehicles will not be able to go all round the roundabout but will be diverted down Hereford Road to the mini-roundabout by the Retail Park. A plan of the short diversion can be viewed by clicking on the file link. The diversion will be removed at weekends but is likely to lead to even more delays so please allow extra time for your journeys into and around Shrewsbury
