Whitehaven Town Centre and Harbourside SPD

Copeland Borough Council formally adopted the Whitehaven Town Centre and Harbourside Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) on 6th September 2012.

The SPD refers to the Town Centre and Harbourside area of Whitehaven and has been produced to promote high quality design in new development, taking account of the historic context of the town centre and harbour.

We would like to thank all those who got involved with the SPD especially the youth groups, Whitehaven School and the various primary schools including Bransty, Valley and St Mary’s which provided a number of imaginative, colourful and useful ideas which helped to inform the document.
