Search the Public Notice PortalPlans have been submitted to Cumberland Council for a new dog park near Workington to offer pet exercise space.
Cumbria Canine Park Ltd propose to turn 0.55 hectares of land at The Barn, Beck Green in Distington into canine exercise park which would be hired out for dog owners' use.
The application is for a change of use of agricultural land which has previously been used for "private equestrian grazing."
If successful, the land could be turned into a pre-booked dog exercise area, with reinforced boundary fencing and a secure pedestrian access gate installed.
A small car park is also proposed for dog owners' to leave their vehicles in.
The site currently does not have parking spaces, but the new application proposes three parking bays in a gravelled area.
No permanent buildings or external structures are proposed, but two 140 litre dog waste bins would be provided.
The application states that these bins would be replaced every two weeks and note that "if more bins/more frequent collections are required thy will be implemented."
If approved, the site could be open seven days a week, including bank holidays, 7am to 8pm.
Cumberland Council are yet to share a decision on the application.
