Hursley Parish Council Page

The civil parish of Hursley is situated to the south west of Winchester in Hampshire, (see Map) and is part of Winchester City Council's administrative area.

Famous for both its connections with Richard Cromwell and John Keble (of Keble College, Oxford fame)

Ampfield Parish, part of Test Valley District, adjoins to the west, and Chandler's Ford, part of Eastleigh Borough, to the south.

The parish, famous for both its connections with Richard Cromwell and John Keble (of Keble College, Oxford fame), is centred on the historic downland village of Hursley, which lies roughly mid-way between Winchester and Romsey on the A3090. Sometimes known as "The Village of Chimneys" because of the tall highly decorated rubbed brick chimneys, which decorate many of the older buildings, the village is home to IBM (UK) Laboratories, who occupy Hursley Park, the "Big House" of the village.

The Council consists of nine members who are elected every four years. It meets on the second Monday of May, and each alternate month thereafter, usually at 8.00 p.m. Meetings are held in the Village Hall and the public is welcome to attend. The minutes since November 1997 are published on the HPC website.

The next regular meeting of the Council will be held on 12th March 2012
