TWO applications for pop-up campsites in the Dorchester area are included in the local planning lists this week.

Both are for temporary sites for August, the Winterborne Monkton application, where campsites have been held in the past, has already been judged to comply with Habitat Regulations, needed because the adjoining stream ultimately flows into Poole Harbour.

The other site, also for August with up to 50 pitches, is on agricultural land almost opposite the Dobies garden centre on the outskirts of Owermoigne.

Public comments can be made on any of the applications with full details of each searchable on the Dorset Council website using the references provided.
