Cheltenham Open Data Adds a Council Tax Charges Page
Council tax charges by band A-H and by parish for Cheltenham, plus a link to check your property's official band.
Cheltenham Open Data has published a new council tax page, showing charges by band (A-H) for every area of the borough for the current tax year.
Five of Cheltenham’s parishes — Charlton Kings, Leckhampton with Warden Hill, Prestbury, Swindon Village and Up Hatherley — set their own additional precept, so pay a little more than the rest of the borough. The page also links straight to the official GOV.UK service for checking which band your own property is in.
FAQs
What Does the Council Tax Page Show?
- A table of council tax charges by band (A-H) for each of Cheltenham’s five precepting parishes, plus the standard rate for the rest of the borough.
Where Does the Data Come From?
- Cheltenham Borough Council’s own published charges. There’s no CSV or open data file for this — it’s scraped from the council’s website, since that’s the only source that exists.
How Do I Find My Property’s Band?
- Use the official GOV.UK council tax band checker, run by the Valuation Office Agency — the same service linked from the top of the page.
How Often Is It Updated?
- Monthly, though the figures themselves only change once a year in April. The “last updated” date is at the bottom of the page.
