Parish noticeboards are still one of the official ways information is shared in Kempsey – from statutory notices and meeting agendas to local events and community information.
For residents who don’t follow council websites or social media closely, these boards remain important. Below is a simple guide to where each noticeboard is located, what it’s mainly used for, and how they differ.
All boards are operated by Kempsey Parish Council, with some prioritised for official notices and others intended more for community use.
In Front of the Community Centre (Tin Hut)
📍 Main Road, Kempsey
📌 What3Words: lottery.serve.steadier
This is the primary Parish Council noticeboard.
It will always display official notices such as agendas, elections, consultations, and statutory information. When space allows, community notices may also be displayed – but official notices take priority here.
In Front of the Parish Hall
📍 Main Road, Kempsey
📌 What3Words: warned.carting.codes
This is a secondary Parish Council noticeboard.
Some official notices are displayed here (at the Parish Office’s discretion), with reserved space for community information such as local events and notices.
Outlying Village Noticeboards
These boards are located around the village and are intended mainly for community information, though some key official notices may also appear.
Kerswell Green – Triangle Junction
📍 Kerswell Green
📌 What3Words: headliner.dared.ever
An outlying noticeboard used mostly for community notices, with occasional key official information.
Stonehall Common Road (West Side)
📍 Stonehall Common
📌 What3Words: evoked.guitar.guideline
Another outlying board, primarily for community information, with some official notices when required.
Green Street – Opposite Fox Lane Junction
📍 Green Street, Kempsey
📌 What3Words: bombard.lakeside.eagles
Used mainly for community notices, with limited official information where relevant.
Plovers Rise Playing Fields / Pavilion
📍 Plovers Rise, Kempsey
📌 What3Words: sunshine.inspected.latches
This board displays some key official notices, but is largely available for community information, particularly relevant to users of the playing fields and pavilion.
Why This Matters
Noticeboards remain a formal and legally recognised way of communicating certain Parish Council business. Knowing where they are – and which ones are most likely to display official information – helps residents stay informed without needing to hunt for it.
Kempsey.co.uk will continue to highlight where information is shared, how accessible it is, and whether communication across the village is working as it should.
If you spot missing notices, out-of-date information, or boards that could be better used, those observations matter – and they’re worth raising.
An informed village is a stronger village.
