CUMBRIA County council has extended of the closure of a 1.8km stretch of road because visitors were breaking social distancing rules.

The U1241 road, which gives access to Crammel Linn waterfall, was originally closed on July 7 - the new order runs for 21 days from July 28.

It states it's because of "indiscriminate parking and potential for vehicle collisions, which is both preventing emergency vehicle access and preventing people from observing social distancing."
