Free daytime parking in central Hixon village
Hixton Parish Council Public Car Park is a free surface lot located on High Street in the centre of Hixon village, managed by Hixon Parish Council. The tarmac facility provides approximately 30 marked bays, including two Blue Badge spaces adjacent to the entrance. It is open from dawn until dusk; there is no overnight parking permitted. There are no payment machines, lighting, or CCTV, so daytime use is recommended. A wooden noticeboard at the entrance displays local event information and parish announcements. Pedestrian access leads directly to the Hixon Village Hall (0.05 km), The Wheel Inn pub (0.1 km), and village shops. Seasonal village fairs occasionally occupy half of the lot, reducing available spaces by 15; temporary signage directs drivers to alternative parking on School Close (0.3 km). Quarterly maintenance includes sweeping, litter removal, and periodic refreshing of bay markings.
