Pickhill with Roxby & Sinderby Parish Council
Where are We?
In a rural location in North Yorkshire, the Parish centres on the villages of Pickhill and Sinderby. The parish area is bounded to the west by the A1(M) and to the east by the River Swale. It is surrounded by (and roughly equidistant to) the market towns of Thirsk, Northallerton, Bedale, Masham and the City of Ripon (England’s smallest City). The East Coast Main Line is 7 miles to the east of the Parish, served by rail stations at Thirsk and Northallerton. The Parish also lies mid-way between Yorkshire’s two National Parks – the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales.
What services do the parish council provide
Your Parish Council has an overall responsibility for the well-being of your local community. Their work falls into three main categories:
• Representing your local community
• Delivering services to meet local needs
• Improving quality of life
Some of these services are provided and maintained by the principle authorities - Hambleton District Council and North Yorkshire County Council.
