There are two levels of local government in Pembrokeshire - the local authority Pembs County Council (PCC) and the 78 Community Councils which represent the first tier of local government - the one closest to the community and with the most local knowledge. The Mathry Community Council area encompasses Mathry, Castlemorris and Abercastle. Its activities are governed by legislation and it raises income through its Precept (derived from the local Council Tax) and spends this money on its activities, services and projects. It owns Mathry Community Hall (the running of the Hall is delegated to the Mathry Community Hall Committee) and Castlemorris Village Green.
