Along the Beck

With sustained high rainfall over the past couple of years, Risedale Beck has been regularly flooded and areas are now in danger of washing out underneath trees and below steep banks.  Several areas have already experienced landslides and we have lost several old conifers from along the banks.

Simon has spent the day shoring up the banks along some of these areas and diverting the water flow away from the worst hit sections.  This important work should help to protect these vulnerable areas from future floods.
