Ross-on-Wye Councillors
Your Council
Ross-on-Wye Town Council was established in 1974 following the introduction of the Local Government Act 1972. It underwent further changes in 2015 after a boundary review resulted in its amalgamation with Ross Rural Parish Council.
It is comprised of eighteen councillors representing the town’s three wards: North, East and West.
The councillors have been elected by the residents to represent their interests on matters which affect the town. To achieve this, councillors strive to improve services and amenities for both the residents and visitors.
Town Councillors are supported by officers based at the Corn Exchange, High Street, Ross-on-Wye.

Above all, Ross-on-Wye Town Council is a parish council serving the people of Ross-on-Wye. Most importantly, we want to maintain and improve the quality of life in the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye because we are passionate about ensuring the town is a vibrant place for residents, businesses and visitors.
What do we do?
Firstly, we provide and maintain a number of local services. For instance, the bandstand, arboretum and flower tubs. Secondly we are proactive in promoting and encouraging tourism to the town. E.g. visitors continue to enjoy the River Wye, independent shops and attractive streets. Thirdly, we also run the town’s regular Thursday and Saturday markets, which take place under the Market House.
In addition, the Council played a huge role in producing the Neighbourhood Development Plan.
