Locals report that the reservoir was overtopping a stone wall designed for traffic safety (not designed to hold water) which runs across the reservoir dam. #UnitedUtilities report they have no data about reservoir level during the storm.

Maximal flows were released into the outflow river, St Johns Beck, which leads into the River Greta, which follows through the middle of the town of #Keswick , then drains onward to the town of #Cockermouth .

A smirking and evil Barry Todhunter Huntsman and fox hunter from Threlkeld where his kennels are. On Boxing Day -even though not welcome he walks his hounds on leads through Keswick in defiance. With his supporters who pay to view on our fells… obnoxious being. #Cockermouth
