Plans for Blyth dog park approved
Plans for a new secure dog park in Blyth, Northumberland, have secured planning permission.
The one-acre park is to be created on a section of land off Whitewater Lane, where The Tournament Ground outdoor activity centre is located.
No more than six dogs will be allowed on site, which will be surrounded by a six-foot high perimeter fence, at any one time.
Applicant Jeremy Smith, of Bridge Farm, Bawtry Road, also plans to erect a modest, timber shelter to be used during bad weather. In addition, wildflowers, plants and shrubs will be grown on the site.
Planning permission was granted on condition that a waste management plan is drawn up, detailing how dog mess will be collected and disposed of.
