Know before you go
Local authority guidance for dog owners. On-site signs take priority and restrictions can change.
In public places covered by Schedule 1 of Newcastle City Council's 2026 order, the person in charge of a dog must remove its faeces immediately. The order records reasonable-excuse, land-controller-consent and specified assistance-dog exemptions.
Newcastle City Council (opens in a new tab)The 2026 order is not a blanket on-lead rule. An authorised officer may require the person in charge to put and keep a dog on a lead only where restraint is reasonably necessary to prevent nuisance, annoyance or disturbance; follow that direction and any separate site signage.
