Wharncliffe Hall, Newtyle can no longer be used as a polling place. Newtyle Legion Hall was used in the 2024 election with no issues. Our recommendation is that Newtyle Legion Hall continues to be used as a polling place.
Although this proposed change was not originally included as part of our recent consultation on polling places, this change was accepted by Angus Council in December 2025.
This means we can make necessary arrangements for the Scottish Parliament election in May 2026.
It was also agreed that a retrospective consultation would be undertaken so that stakeholders and the public can comment on the change.
How to have your say
Any elector in the Angus local government area may make representations to the council about this proposal.
If possible, include proposals for venues that may be suitable for consideration as alternative polling places.
We also welcome input from anyone with expertise on access to premises and facilities for people who are disabled.
