Pedestrain access route......188 Marsh Street

As it has been a long standing, unresolved issue, we are hopeful that Network Rail will complete the transfer of 188 Marsh Street to Barrow Borough Council as a matter of urgency.

Until this matter is concluded we remain in a position whereby we could potentially lose tens of thousands of pound in funding. Funding which we secured from Our Green Space in 2008 and would, among other elements, provide for the works to construct the main pedestrian access route onto the Green Heart Den. 

Our Green Space project is a Cumbria-wide three-year partnership project running from Jan 2008 to Dec 2010 and has now been extended until December 2011. The project is supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund’s 'Your Heritage' grant scheme.
