When Caldicot Town Council was formed in 1974 the then council decided to take over the control of the Caldicot Cemetery from the (old) Monmouth District Council. The George V Playing Fields was acquired by the local community by fundraising and was put into the George V Playing Field Trust for the community.
Within the playing fields is the Caldicot Bowling Green, two football pitches and a children's playground. There are two allotments at the top of Sandy Lane and in Oakley Way. Managing and maintaining The George V Playing Field, the Caldicot Bowling Club Green, the children's playground, the football pitches, the allotments and the Caldicot Cemetery by a Town Council is very expensive and takes a large slice of the Councils budget.
