Lake District planners have warned that a proposed 100-caravan holiday park near Penruddock would harm the setting of the national park. The development, on agricultural land by Whitbarrow Farm, has already faced objections from the Environment Agency and concerns over drainage, traffic and cumulative impact. Area planner Phil Nicholls said the development would introduce built features into an undeveloped landscape, causing visual harm. Natural England has requested further information on potential effects on the River Eden Special Area of Conservation, and the council's ecology team has lodged a holding objection pending a breeding bird survey. The application remains under consideration.
