What is the Parish Council ?
A parish is the smallest administrative unit within the hierarchy of local government i.e. counties, districts and parishes. Long Itchington is one of 109 parishes within the Stratford-on-Avon District which in turn is one of 5 districts within the County of Warwickshire.
Despite its name, it has nothing to do with the parish church or its governing body although the geographic area covered by the Parish of Long Itchington roughly coincides with the parochial boundaries of Holy Trinity, the local C of E Church. more about What is a Parish Council
