Due to essential maintenance, the following systems will be unavailable from 3.00pm on Friday 31 March until 8.00am Monday 3 April 2023: our online council tax, business rates and housing benefit services, and our welfare assistance form. You will also not be able to register to pay council tax online, make a change of address for council tax or cancel single person discount. You are still able to make a payment during this time. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Grazing sites

We provide a number of grazing sites that you can apply for each year.

In March each year, we advertise the sites that are available to apply for. After this time it is not possible to apply for a grazing site until the following March.

Pay for your grazing site

Pay your council invoice online or contact us on our 24 hour automated payment line. Charges are reviewed annually and may vary according to the size of the site.
