New Clerk appointed effective 1 December 2025

Kilmington Parish Council is very pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Steven Willis who will take up his duties on 1 December 2025.

Steve, who lives in nearby Mere, has been working as Deputy Clerk for Wilton Town Council since April this year and will bring with him a wealth of knowledge and experience.  We are very fortunate to have secured his agreement to become Parish Clerk and Responsible Financial Officer.  As your departing Clerk, I am delighted to be able to pass the reins over to him and to know that the parish council’s affairs will be in safe hands.
