Welcome to Duddon Parish Council

The Organisation

Duddon Parish is situated in South West Cumbria, mainly within the Lake District National Park, and was formed in 1976 to incorporate the old parishes of Broughton West, Seathwaite with Dunnerdale and Angerton.

The Parish

The Parish stretches from the summit of Wrynose Pass in the North to the Duddon Estuary on Morecambe Bay in the South.

Broughton-in-Furness
The main town within the parish is the small ancient market town of Broughton-in-Furness, which has a Charter dating back to 1575.

The Valleys
Contained within the wide boundaries of the parish are the Duddon Valley, much beloved by Wordsworth, the secluded Lickle Valley, the beautiful Woodland Valley and the marshes of Angerton on the Duddon Estuary.

The Communities
The main hamlets in these valleys comprise Woodland, Broughton Mills, Ulpha, Dunnerdale, Seathwaite, Cockley Beck & Angerton.

New Parish Councillor

We are pleased to announce that we have a new Parish Councillor. We warmly welcome Marc Ramsbottom and look forward to working with him.

Playground Volunteers

On Saturday 28^th June we are having a ‘tidy up’ at the playground in Wilson Park. We’re meeting at 10.30 and willing volunteers, complete with scrubbing brushes, cleaning materials and secateurs, will be very welcome. The equipment and the benches would benefit from a spring clean. It would be great to see a good turnout. Many hands make light work!

Playground Bin

In an attempt to save some money, we are looking for a volunteer to empty the playground bin, not the dog waste bin. If anyone is happy to help please get in touch.

Charter Day

A reminder that our thoughts are turning to August 1^st and Charter Day, an important day in the Parish calendar and that this year we are considering expanding the event and inviting stall holders to attend the celebrations. We have had some interest, but believe there is the potential for it to be bigger and better. If you would like to get involved please get in touch.

Potholes

Please keep reporting potholes. This can be done by going towww.westmorlandandfurness.gov.uk and clicking on ‘Streets, roads and pavements.’ The more frequently they are reported, the better.

The next Parish Council Drop In will be 10.45 – 12 noon on Tues 10^th June at The Square Café.
