Greystoke Flooding

This channel hosts videos from flooding events in the village and parish of Greystoke, Cumbria.  It is complementary to our online photo record of flooding going back over 20 years, which can be found on the Greystoke Village Website (link below)

In order to submit a video to the channel, please contact the Greystoke Community Group via their email address for further information. Details can be found on the village website.

The aim is to crowdsource a history of flooding in the village from the community to better inform planning authorities and efforts to #SlowTheFlow through the Eden River SSSI, and also to help with flood prevention and mitigation measures.

At the historic heart of the village, surrounded by listed buildings, and the Grade 2* St Andrews Church lies an important, functional floodplain which helps absorb flood waters.
