Parish Amenities

The Council is responsible for several amenities in the parish.  These include the Parish Wharf (common land), the play equipment on the school playground and the Green (common land). See the left column for detailed information on the War Memorial Hall (including hall rental) and Amenity Documents.

Parish Wharf

Parishioners are welcome to use the Parish Wharf at their own risk. For those interested in fishing, a rod license must be obtained. A special thanks must go to the volunteers of the The Parish Wharf Project.  It has been very successful in clearing brush and vegetation at the Wharf and adjacent BAA land to enhance the amenity value for parishioners.  A picnic table was installed and a bbq may be a future addition.  The Council requests that parishioners remove their rubbish when leaving and report any potential problems with the pier or other equipment to the Clerk.

Play Equipment

The play equipment on the school playground is open to students of Cleeve Prior C of E Primary School or children accompanied by an adult outside of school hours.  It is the adult’s responsibility to assess the suitability of the equipment for the child’s age and ability.  Please report any potential problems with the equipment to the Clerk. 

Village Green

The Green is maintained by the Council and occassionally used for parish events.

There is common land in front of The Garage and the immediate properties adjacent either side. Parking is permitted in these areas. 

The War Memorial Hall is managed by a voluntary management committee which hold regular social functions to raise funds.  The Hall can also be booked for private use.  To book the Memorial Hall please email clerk@cleevepriorparishcouncil.co.uk.

Footpaths

Cleeve Prior is fortunate to have an extensive network of public footpaths which are predominately maintained by local volunteers. Evesham Rambling Club launched a series of waymarked walks around the Vale of Evesham. One of these walks, #3, takes in The Littletons, Offenham and Cleeve Prior. It can be walked as a continuous ten mile route or as two shorter walks starting in Middle Littleton. The walks have a unique waymark which includes a QR Code which can be downloaded to phones anywhere on the route. The walk is a culmination of a footpath improvement project completed in Cleeve Prior. The improvements include replacing stiles with gates and replacing several damaged bridges.
