Probably the best village in the world
Every week, the Parish Council works on a wide range of projects and initiatives to support Bucklesham. With so much going on, it can be difficult to keep up.
We will endeavour to bring you all the latest news from around the village and our key achievements as often as possible. From what projects we are working on, to community events and Parish Council initiatives, the News will inform you of all our 'best bits'.
