The parish council provides a ‘multi-user games area’ within the playing fields in Wood Lane, Shilton for children of the two villages to enjoy.

Shilton playing fields are provided for the residents of Shilton and Barnacle and visitors to the parish for their general recreational use and enjoyment.

The grass cutting service is underataken by a contractor on behalf of the parish council and the parish council has specified that all public areas should be cut, on average, every two weeks between the months of April – October.

Any member of the public may be buried, or have their ashes interned, within the cemetery, although the fees charged by the parish council will be tripled for those who did not reside in Shilton or Barnacle.
