Governing documents

These are the documents the Association actually runs on. They are not light reading, but they are the answer to most arguments.

The constitution

Read the constitution on this site, where it can be searched, read on a phone and linked to clause by clause. The PDF below remains the authoritative version.

Constitution, Objectives and Rules 10th Edition, October 2022. The current version · PDF, 232 KB (opens in a new tab)

The 10th Edition is the constitution the Association currently operates under. If you have seen a later draft in circulation, it is not in force and is not published here.

Policies made under it

Building Works Charging Schedule Annex 1 to the constitution, 2026 revision · PDF, 80 KB (opens in a new tab) Driveway Widening and Verge Crossing Alterations Policy Ratified at the AGM, 18 November 2024 · PDF, 94 KB (opens in a new tab)

Both are explained in plain English elsewhere on this site: the charges on building works charge, and the driveway policy on altering your driveway. Those pages are there to save you reading these, but where they differ, these documents are the authority.

Minutes and accounts

The record of what was decided, and what it cost, is on AGM and accounts.

Still to come

The Association also holds a Residents Guide from 2019 and a Roads Strategy from 2022. Neither has been published on the website before, and whether they should be is a decision for the committee rather than for whoever maintains this site.

If you need either in the meantime, please ask.
