  • Street Lights

    Q. How can I report faulty street lights?

    A. If you are aware of a faulty street light please do not hesitate to report it.  When reporting a fault it would be most helpful if you could provide as much of the following information as possible:

    • The name of the street in which the light is located
    • The number of the light – normally stencilled or stamped onto the lighting column
    • The property number or name nearest to the light
    • The type of fault eg not lighting, lighting at the wrong time, permanently on, damaged light, reduced intensity of the light etc

    There are some 260 street lights in the village.  Some are the responsibility of the Parish Council,  some are the responsibility of Norfolk County Council, Broadland District Council or management companies.  Listed below are the roads with the name of the body responsible.
