Lewes Town Council

Lewes Town Council is one of the 300 largest of the 10,000-or-so Parish Councils in England and Wales, with expenditure budgeted at just over £1million. It is the successor to Lewes Borough Council, which was incorporated in 1881.

We are based at the Town Hall, in the High Street, which has been the home of Lewes’ local Council since 1893. More here
