Brough Castle

The Parish Council usually meets at 7.00 pm on the third Thursday of every month (except February, June, August and November).
Agendas are posted on the Parish Council notice boards (outside the Reading Room in Main Street and on the hill in Church Brough) at least three clear working days before meetings.

Minutes of meetings are available by prior arrangement with the Parish Clerk. All meetings are open to the public and before each meeting a public participation session is available for residents to raise matters of concern. The Annual General Meeting and the Annual Parish Meeting are usually held on the same night as the Parish Council meeting in May each year.
