Prestbury Village 320x181

 

 

Prestbury in Gloucestershire lies aproximately two miles to the north east of Cheltenham at the foot of the Cotswold escarpment.

Although now largely considered a suburb of Cheltenham the parish has retained its unique identity and along with its range of facilities and amenities remains a desirable area to live.

The Parish Council is proud to serve a population of just under 7,000 residents living in the popular parish of Prestbury. The parish, a former Medieval Borough, is roughly an oblong shape running from Noverton in the north east, encompassing Cheltenham Racecourse, and Hunting Butts to the north west, with its northern boundary at Hyde Brook and its southern boundary just beyond Prestbury Road.
