Welcome to the Langport Town Council website.
Langport, situated on the banks of the River Parrett, in the heart of the Somerset Levels, is one of the smallest towns in England. The Town itself is surrounded by the parish of Huish Episcopi and rests in an area of countryside that includes the communities of Curry Rivel, Aller, High and Low Ham, Drayton, Pitney,Hambridge, Westport and Muchelney, amongst others. To the north east is the town of Somerton and to the south east that of Martock. Langport is situated in the District of South Somerset, whose local office is situated at Old Kelways in Langport. The principal office of the District Council is located at Brympton Way, Yeovil.
Langport has its' own Town Council, which is responsible directly to the residents of the Town, and we hope that this site will be your first point of call for information relating to the activities and services provided by the Council and its' associated Town Trust.
On this site you will find the Agenda for the next, or most recent, Town Council Meeting, together with minutes of all meetings held during the last year.
You will also find a copy of the latest LANGPORT LOCAL Newsletter. This regular newsletter, designed to keep those residents who do not have access to the internet abreast with the activities of the Town Council and Town Trust, is distributed to every household on the Langport Electoral Register.
As the site develops it is hoped that the website will also become the local access point for information about services provided by South Somerset District Council and Somerset County Council. We also hope to encourage community development and support through involving local people more in what is happening in the town and surrounding area and by improving communication between the Council and the people of Langport. So, if you have any ideas about how we can do this please contact us.
