Plans submitted for new winter garden at A69 pub
The planning application, which was received on Tuesday (August 5), is for the Lane End Inn, Hayton Lane End, Hayton.
The development would include a winter garden extension, indoor and outdoor play areas, a porch, an entrance canopy, as well as a car park and associated infrastructure. It is the renewal of permission granted in 2021 which was subsequently varied the following year.
According to a planning report the Lane End Inn is a two-storey public house with a single storey conservatory and dining room extension located on the southern side of the A69 to the immediate east of the junction with the road leading to Hayton.
It states: 'To the south of the inn there is a bungalow with associated outbuildings known as Aikrigg. To the immediate east there are open fields, a wood (Commongate Plantation), and (approximately 110 metres away) Invergrae Lodge.'
According to the report the intention is for the pub and associated facilities to be managed as a family orientated establishment that is 'welcoming and has a relaxed, low-key atmosphere where guests, along with their children, can come and have a quiet beverage and meal'.
It adds: 'The proposal does not include any stage or performance area. On-site staff accommodation is to be retained to ensure 24-hour supervision.'
A separate report states that the porch would be oak framed and it is proposed to retain and invest in a rural facility that not only serves the local community but also can take advantage of any passing trade along the A69.
It adds: 'The improved facilities helping, in the process, to boost tourism in the area. However, it is acknowledged that, at this stage, the percentage of the clients represented by travellers and holiday makers compared to members of the local community is unclear.'
It concludes: 'In relation to the principle of the proposal, its impact on the landscape and visual amenity, the living conditions of neighbouring residents, highway safety, ecology/bats and drainage the circumstances have not fundamentally altered.'

Key dates announced for two major Workington regeneration projects
Key dates have been announced for two major regeneration projects in Workington. The Town Centre Public Realm and Connectivity Project, alongside the Workington Gateway scheme, form part of a wider regeneration plan supported by more than £33 million in UK taxpayer funding. Cllr Mark Fryer, leader of Cumberland Council, said: "This is an exciting new chapter for Workington. "These projects are not just about improving roads, buildings, and public spaces, they are about creating opportunities, attracting investment, and making our town an even better place to live, work, and visit. "We are committed to working closely with the community and local businesses every step of the way to ensure these plans bring the greatest possible benefits for the area." The money will be used to fund works in the town centre, transport links, support growth in the manufacturing and renewable energy sectors, business support, and new sports facilities. The regeneration programme also includes the Innovation Centre, Port of Workington Logistics and Energy Hub, new cycleways, upgrades in Hall Park, and the proposed Cumberland Sports Village. The council says the Town Centre Public Realm and Connectivity Project, funded through the Town Deal, will receive £3 million to transform the area into a 'pedestrian-friendly' space designed to boost footfall and attract private investment. Early site access for contractor Thomas Armstrong Limited began earlier this month. Main construction is set to begin on Monday, September 1, starting with Murray Road, which will see overnight closures but remain open during the day. The Workington Gateway Project, backed by £10 million in UK taxpayer funding, aims to improve key transport routes, with major upgrades planned for Ramsay Brow and Hall Brow.
