Nobles Rest Entrance

last updated: 13 July 2021

The Society is proposing to create a new entrance to Nobles Rest from the top of Library Road – a short cut into the park.   The entrance would be called the ‘Tarbuck Entrance’ after the late Rob Tarbuck, a local architect and longstanding member of the Executive Committee whose idea it was.  The proposals have received Planning Permission (a unanimous vote) and we have obtained grant funding from the Town Council and South Lakeland District Council.  If you go to the top end of the Library Road car park and look through the railings you will see the route of the proposed path.  We are presently in the process of agreeing the legal arrangements with the owners who are generally supportive of the idea (the land is part of the M&S site) and we hope to be able to proceed before long.
