Second dog exercise field could open in Norfolk village

Plans for a new dog exercise and training field in Martham, Norfolk, has been submitted.

Applicant Lucinda Scott is seeking to change the use of an agricultural field on Grange Farm, off Common Road in Martham, to a secure dog training and exercise field.

Scott already runs Martham Paw Ground, a dog park just off the A149, which opened in spring last year.

The new park, if permitted, would include a 2m high fence around the perimeter, as well as an access track and parking area with four spaces. The new field would be open every day from 5am to 9.30pm.

A decision on the bid is expected by 1 June.
