LATEST UPDATES ON THE RECOVERY WORK IN GRISEDALE

The Grisedale valley saw some of the worst damage caused by the floods of December 2015. There is still significant work to be done, especially further up the Grisedale Valley, but thanks to the hard work of the residents, local farmers, Beckside Construction and the Environment Agency much has been achieved already. In 2018 Cumbria County Council completed some stabilisation work in Waterfall wood. Unfortunately during this work a considerable amount of stone was washed out from the access road built by the contractors.  This stone is now further down Grisedale Beck and into Goldrill Beck and will need to be cleared out in 2019. In addition further work is still required by CCC to sort the water drainage on the kennel road and ensure that no further destabilisation of the bank occurs due to unsafe trees.
