#Keswick’s newly installed flood defences were breached, and downstream hundreds of homes were flooded
The combination of the heavy rainfall through the autumn, heightened with #StormDesmond, and then in combination with the reservoir opening its overflow pipes caused massive disruption from the flooding, hundreds made homeless, and a massive £500 million cost to the economy.

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 .

So if you visit #LakeDistrict around #Keswick area and you are looking for a less crowded super nice #trailrun, I can highly recommend this tour (with a view). I am not a strong uphill runner, so I did quite a bit of (fast) hiking, but still it a super to run track. Stats: about 15 km and and close to 1000 m elevation gain and 8 summits or so :)

It's a bit of a grey and damp day today as you can see from the many #LakeDistrict #WebCams to which we link from our webcams page but it's not stopping people shopping at the market in #Keswick ... as you can see from the live webcam there.

#WalkReport Amazing 17km #LakeDistrict walk with #GreatGable, Dub’s Hut #bothy and #HonisterSlateMine being highlights.
Brutal descent coming down from #GreatGable, we spent most of it on all fours looking like crabs🦀
