WELCOME
​
Welcome to the website for Strumpshaw Parish Council, incorporating the villages of Buckenham and Hassingham.
​
Strumpshaw is located on the northern bank of the River Yare around 6 miles (9.7 km) south-east of Norwich. The name Strumpshaw may derive from the old english meaning 'stump grove' which could refer to a small wood.
​
Parish councils are the first level of local government and the closest to the community they serve. Parish council meetings are open to the public and there is a public forum at the beginning of each meeting for members of the public to put questions to the parish council.
