Dog park owners' plan for pet crematorium and chapel of rest rejected despite support from locals
The owners of a dog park near Newport have had their plans to build a pet crematorium rejected, despite receiving support from locals.
The owners of Newport Dog Park, in Moreton near Newport, applied for permission to use one of their buildings as a pet crematorium back in July.
A chapel of rest and a reception building would have also been built on the site if the plans had been approved.
The application stated the new facility would "provide the local community with an in-demand service which allows bereaved pet owners to mourn their pets in a private and peaceful space".
