The National Trust 发来的关于Lake District storms的 update ...我发上来给lz参考...
Forgive me for another email so soon after the last one, but many of you have been asking how things are getting on in the Lakes, so I thought I would drop you one last update.
After a hectic couple of weeks, we’re now able to draw breath, moving on from the “emergency” phase to the “clear up” and beginning to plan for the future. The emerging picture is one of heavily localised damage, especially in places such as Ullswater, Buttermere and Coniston.
Amazing amounts of gravel and stone have been washed onto fields, paths and tracks, while many walls and fences have been swept away.
Numerous bridges have been damaged and many paths have disappeared.
Over 20 houses and farms have suffered substantial damage and many others have been affected to one degree or another.
We have re-housed a number of tenants and will continue to help others where we can.
To date, we’ve identified over £300,000 of work needed in the countryside that’s not covered by insurance.
On the up side, there’s a strong determination amongst communities across the Lakes to get things back on track and we’re committed to playing our part in that. With the help of passionate volunteers, our wardens are now working on this mammoth task – clearing debris from the head of Coniston or flooded buildings, diverting becks away from buildings and back to their original course and rebuilding paths, bridges and walls. And we’re planning for the longer term, to look at what we must do to cope with and adapt to such events and the likely impacts of a changing climate.
We’re immensely grateful for all the support that we have received. Although the immediate crisis has passed, there’s no doubt we’ll be dealing with the aftermath of the floods for many months to come. Any help that you can give, whether it’s continuing to visit the Lakes and supporting the local communities, volunteering your help or donating to the Lake District Flood Appeal, will be very much appreciated. We will continue to update the North West pages on the website with the latest videos and news.
Once again, many thanks for your help, kind words and support.
John Darlington
Assistant Director, Operations (North West)
