Long Stratton Council
The Town Council is made up of members who all live in the village and surrounding areas and represent the village on various matters.

Long Stratton
The Town is situated halfway between the county city, Norwich, and the market town of Diss; along the Roman built road, the A140 which runs from Cromer (North Norfolk) to Ipswich (Suffolk).

Neighbourhood Plan
The Plan has been subject to an independent examination and the final report was received on the 5th July 2021. The examiner has recommended that the plan, once modified with the recommended changes, proceeds to referendum. You can see a copy of the report by clicking on the link below.
On the 19th July 2021 South Norfolk Council approved the plan to proceed to referendum, subject to the specified modifications.
The date has now been announced and the local referendum will take place on Thursday 30th September 2021.
This is very exciting and indicates the end of a long process and a lot of hard work by all involved. We do hope you are able to participate in this referendum!
