AN EGREMONT play park has been given a new lease of life by Copeland Borough Council.
Repairs to the play area at Orgill park have been made alongside a refresh of the play bark throughout the site.
The Copeland Council Parks and Open Spaces team is responsible for cleaning and maintaining 14 play areas and two teen spaces across the borough.
The award-winning team was ranked top in the UK by the Association for Public Service Excellence, for the value-for-money way it looks after its open spaces, in 2016.
Fly-tipper hit with fine
Published: 11/04/2018
Copeland Borough Council has fined a householder after waste was illegally tipped on a picturesque rural road.
The council served a £250 fixed penalty notice on the resident, who claimed they had paid a 'man with a van' to take away the waste, believing it would be dealt with properly.
The extensive fly-tip, which contained a mixture of general household waste, was left on the fell road between Wath Brow and Brisco Mount in March.
