Situated in the Borough of Surrey Heath, Windlesham Parish Council serves a population of approximately 17,000 people covering the three villages of Bagshot, Lightwater and Windlesham.
The Parish has many well-kept parks and open spaces, including a number of heritage assets such as Bagshot Chapel and three Grade II listed War Memorials. Surrounded by beautiful countryside each village has its own unique feel and a thriving community spirit.
Community Governance Review - UPDATE!
Surrey Heath Borough Council has now closed Stage Three of its
Community Governance Review (CGR), which is assessing the current three
village structure of Windlesham Parish Council. SHBC is recommending a boundary change that would create a new, separate parish
council for Windlesham village, while Bagshot and Lightwater would remain
together under the existing parish council. Please visit the Surrey Heath Borough Council website: Community Governance Review
The consultation closed on 20 March 2026. Surrey Heath Borough Council will be discussing the final recommendations on Tuesday 16th June.
Further details on these final recommendations can be found on SHBC website via this link: Surrey Heath Borough Council Agenda 16 June
Once the final recommendations are confirmed, we will explain what this means in practice for Bagshot, Lightwater and Windlesham. Please keep an eye on our website and social media pages.
