The competition is run by The Rural Community Council of Essex and is open to all the villages in Essex. The title of the competition is slightly misleading as most of the marks are awarded for the facilities which the village provide and for "Community Spirit". As a result it says much more about the village than if everything looked tidy on the day that the judges came round. Langham won the award for villages of our size in 1999 and 2004, were runners up in 2005 and we hope for more success in the future!
