Dog fouling is a serious health risk and must be cleaned up to prevent the spread of infection and distress to residents.

You must clean up after your dog in all publicly owned open spaces and highways except woodlands, marsh and agricultural land. Please read the Public Spaces Protection Order (No 1) (pdf)   for details. Dog owners who fail to comply can be prosecuted (maximum fine £2500) or issued with a fixed penalty notice of £100.

Dog waste can be disposed of in dog bins, street litter bins and at home in your black household waste bin.
