THE PATH along Copeland's coast is being brought back to life to welcome visitors and locals back to this 'hidden gem' of a coastline.
Copeland Council's Connecting Cumbria's Hidden Coast programme, in partnership with Cumbria County Council, has funded improvements to three paths in the St Bees area, which all link to the English Coastal Path.

COPELAND residents interested in purchasing a discounted home in the borough are invited to register their interest.
Under its Discounted Sale scheme, Copeland Council holds details of residents interested in purchasing a ‘discounted’ property – sold at up to 80 per cent of their market value – and then informs residents on the register when qualifying properties become available.
Residents who cannot afford to buy on the open market, who have a local connection to the parish or town and meet other qualifying criteria, will be prioritised initially for discounted housing.
