Welcome to Northop Village Website!  Northop is an historic village with a rich mix of building types and styles evolved over the last eight centuries. In particular the medieval church is prominently located and the visual signature of Northop.
The High Street is the centre of village life: the Post Office provides a real “Community” service; the Edith Bankes Memorial Hall hosts many community activities and the pubs are real local pubs.
Northop has a vibrant social and cultural life. For a village with a population of no more than 1000 people, the community supports a nationally recognised Championship Silver Band, a regionally successful cricket club, an equine competition centre attracting competitors from throughout North Wales and the North West of England, a championship golf course and a drama group which stages a pantomime each year featuring many local characters to hilarious effect!

Once again Northop triumphed in the Flintshire Best Kept Village Competition 2008. The village came joint first with Caerwys for villages with a population between 1000 and 5000. Thanks to everybody who got involved by helping with litter picks, watering and maintaining planter beds and planters. Special thanks to residents who contributed with their own hanging baskets. |

Northop’s Community Website |
|
The Northop Village Website launched on 23rd May 2008. The website is designed to be a useful source of information for both residents of and visitors to Northop. It holds information on current events, local businesses, where to stay, where to eat and where to spend your leisure time. It also has links to useful websites such as the County Council and travel information for Flintshire. The website has been designed and compiled by a group of Northop Residents but we don’t know everything! If you think we have missed out information on a local activity or business or if you have any local news, please send us a message on the online form. Remember, this is your website! |
