Welcome to the Great Tey village website, we aim to provide useful community information for villagers and visitors alike.
Great Tey offers a wealth of facilities; the primary school not only provides a high class education but is a social hub for the community. The recreation ground which is located next to the primary school also provides facilities for all ages and has two play areas as well as additional parking facilities for the school.
The Chequers is Great Tey’s local bar and restaurant and provides a friendly community atmosphere to occupants and visitors to Great Tey. Around the corner from The Chequers is St Barnabas church, a Norman church which dates from around 1150AD. Many of the village occupants have been christened, married and buried in this church. The village church plays a key role, both in the local community and primary school.
Great Tey’s village hall plays a large part in community activities and has recently been through a complete renovation. The village hall hosts the majority of the village’s social events with beavers, cubs, scouts, karate, brownies, rainbows, table tennis and the women institute to name a few. It also hosts the post office outreach service on Tuesday and Friday afternoons.
