Cumberland Council has received a range of planning applications for various projects across the area.

Among the applications is a proposal for a new housing development with amended plans, tree work to trim back overgrown and hazardous trees, and several proposals for telecommunications installations.

One application is for a variation to an approved housing development in Aspatria.

The proposed variation would amend the plans for the new development, which consists of 38 dwellings.

Another application involves tree work in High Harrington.

Three trees, a hazel tree, sycamore tree, and ash tree, are causing issues with overgrowth and the risk of large branches falling.

The proposed work includes trimming the trees back to the boundary line and reducing the crown height of the ash tree by six meters.

These measures aim to address the hazardous conditions posed by the trees, particularly during strong winds.

Telecommunications installations also feature in the planning applications.

Three separate proposals are seeking permission to install medium telecommunications poles in various locations.

These installations are planned for Little Bampton, Wigton, and Mealsgate.

In terms of residential applications, there are several proposals.

One application seeks permission for a two-storey rear extension, single-storey porch, and extended outbuilding in Westnewton.

Another application is for a detached garage in Derwent Park in Great Broughton.

Wrought iron railings are proposed to be fixed atop a boundary wall in Kirkbampton Village.

There is also a request for listed building consent for the demolition of an existing lean-to conservatory and the construction of a new single-storey extension in Ling Lane, Welton.

Furthermore, there are applications for telecom installations involving multiple poles.

Two poles are proposed for a road in Little Bampton, while three poles are planned in Kirkbampton and in Silloth.

Among the applications, there are also proposals for a height reduction of a beech tree in Bitter Beck, Cockermouth, and the replacement of windows and French doors in Workington.
