Parishes by county › Cumbria › Maryport
Partly — it depends on the exact address.
Maryport (Cumbria) is designated “by maps” in Schedule 6 of SI 2009/2098: only the area drawn on the official map sheet is a DPA — typically the rural part of the parish, not the built-up settlement. A home here may or may not be inside it.
Click or tap anywhere on the map to check that exact spot.
Shaded: the whole Maryport parish boundary (ONS, generalised). Only part of it is designated — the map sheet shows which part.
The checker places the address and links the map sheet so you can see which side of the line it falls.
In a Designated Protected Area, the Capital Funding Guide requires a grant-funded Shared Ownership lease to do one of two things: cap staircasing at 80%, or allow you past 80% but require you to sell back to the landlord (or its nominee) when you move. It keeps homes in small rural communities affordable for local people.
Which of the two applies depends on the wording of your lease — and homes outside a DPA can carry similar terms under a Section 106 planning agreement. More: the 80% staircasing cap · selling a Shared Ownership home · Section 106 restrictions.
