​The wonderful dry summer weather was followed by an extremely wet autumn. Since Storm Desmond in 2015, the local authorities have restructured the way they monitor the river levels and manage potential flooding. During the very wettest period in late October, they were meeting every 2 hours and their communication with Parish Councils was excellent. This bodes well for the future. We post important information like weather warnings and road closures on our Parish Facebook Page so please keep an eye on those posts.
