Always amazing when you go to hebden and places have marks on the wall showing where the water got to. Basically the whole ground floor in some of them.
Even Leeds was underwater in 2015.
This really kicked off the protection schemes along the Aire.
The Calder now has some very high walls along it and the streams that feed it are getting deliberately choked with fallen wood to slow the water down.
Just need colonies of Beavers I guess?
Ha, we drove from Burnley to Hull and back that day. Coming back over the tops because the motorway was shut due to a sinkhole was "interesting".
