This is the website for the civil parish of Keresley in north Coventry. A rural parish within the area of Ancient Arden countryside.
Two areas of Keresley are included; Keresley Green and a part of Keresley Village.
Keresley Heath is not included within the parish.
A Parish Council is the first tier of local government and represents the residents of within the Parish. The boundary of the Parish is the same as the polling district
There are about 650 electors within this Polling District of the Bablake Ward.
Keresley Parish Council is served by seven councillors, who undertake the role on a voluntary basis to represent the interests of residents for a term of 4 years. There are currently three elected councillors and three co-opted councillors. We currently have one vacant position.
The next Parish Council elections are due to take place in May 2023.
Coventry housing numbers
UK Statistics Authority
released their report on
Monday 10th May
This report substantiates the opinion that the housing numbers used by Coventry City Council in the Local Plan are too high.
It may be viewed here.
For a number of years a local campaign group based here in Keresley Village, the
Coventry Greenbelt Organisation,
have been campaigning, in conjunction with the CPRE, for a proper review of the ONS housing numbers used by Coventry City Council in their Local Plan.
A letter from the statistics authority to the CPRE suggests that the ONS should work with the CPRE when developing new population estimates.
