Views sought on Dalston Conservation Area

Local residents are being asked their views on proposals to extend the Dalston Conservation Area.

A public consultation is currently underway and intends to encourage debate and comment from anyone within the area who has an interest in the conservation of the village’s heritage and character. The consultation proposals look at the existing boundary and examines whether this is still appropriate or should be reduced or extended.

The consultation has so far included a public exhibition at the Victory Hall, Dalston held on Saturday 15 March. A leaflet showing the proposed extensions to the conservation has also been distributed in and around the Dalston area. The leaflet is available from the Civic Centre or via the City Council’s website, information is also available by contacting the Local Plans and Conservation section on 01228 817193.

Any comments should be sent to: Head of Planning and Housing Services, Carlisle City Council, Civic Centre, Carlisle, CA3 8QG by Friday, 16 May.
