Welcome to the Speen Parish Council website
Speen Parish Council covers five distinct settlements – Bagnor, Marsh Benham, Speen, Stockcross, Woodspeen. The Parish Council is the tier of Local Government closest to the people.
The Parish Council encourages parishioners to attend Council meetings which are open to the public and always begin with a 10 minute open session for public comments. The clerk may be contacted if you have any ideas for or concerns about the parish, or any issues with which we may be able to help (clerk@speenpc.org.uk).
