Hotel gives surplus furniture to flood charity
Surplus furniture from more than 60 rooms in a Cumbrian hotel is being donated to a charity so it can be used by people who're still sorting out their homes after Storm Desmond more than a year ago.

The cabinets, lights and other items come from the Low Wood Bay Resort, where the hotel is closing for the first time since the 1970s so it can have £16m of refurbishment work done.
It'll remain mostly cloudy overnight with hill fog. There will still be some further outbreaks of rain or drizzle with temperatures falling to 6C (43F).
A Cumbrian company that makes artificial grass for sports pitches says demand is expanding and it's hoping to take on more people as a result.

"We like to employ local staff, we will get new machines, and it will just bring general business into the area," he said.

The circular cairn, held together with cement, with a steel plaque on top, was found damaged by Nic Page, a regular visitor to the summit, three days ago. The plaque lay a few yards away.
The viewfinder, which names the peaks that can be seen from the 3,054ft (931m) summit, was placed there in the Jubilee year of 1977.
"I was furious, absolutely fuming," said Nic. And Gordie Oliver, whose father Des, a retired Lake District National Park ranger, oversaw the monument's construction, said that if no one else repaired it, he would.

Power company says burying lines would push up electricity bills
The power company National Grid says burying power lines rather than erecting controversial pylons on the border of the Lake District national park could make electricity more expensive.
The proposals would mean the line going underground through an area of the Lake District National Park, and beneath Morecambe Bay, but on large pylons across the top of the Duddon estuary, which has roused local opposition.
Jeanette Unsworth from National Grid says running the whole distance undergound would cost far more: "Ultimately the cost of our project is going to be borne by every single electricity bill payer in the country and that's why we have to think carefully about how we spend their money."
Quote Message: The Duddon is a beautiful area, I don't think anybody's disputing that, but it isn't afforded the same protection as the national park." from Jeanette Unsworth National Grid

Barrow and Holker Street prepare for FA tie with Rochdale
Excitement's building for Barrow football fans ahead of Saturday's historic FA Cup match when Barrow AFC take on Rochdale in the third-round.

The Holker Street ground has been put under wraps to protect the turf and make sure the match goes ahead, with a sell-out crowd of 4,400 promising the biggest gate since 1990.
The last time the Bluebirds hosted a third-round match was in 1968, only to concede defeat.
Facing Rochdale means Barrow haven't drawn a giant-killing payday, but have a better chance of going through to a history-making fourth round.
College's final year 'was its most successful'
Barrow Sixth Form College, which merged last year with Furness College because of financial problems, enjoyed its best exam results in its final months.
