Kent Flood Defence

Following on from the floods we had last year here in Kendal, the Environment Agency in association with The Local Council have agreed that the Islands that have been formed by the stone washed down into the Gooseholme area of the river need to be removed. This is being done sensitively so as not to destroy the environment for the fish and any other river life. I personally think this is a good idea as this will help stop the river flooding and possibly destroying the habitats of all the river life. The work has started and is looking good so far.
Looking at what has been done to date this will aid the Salmon & Sea Trout runs to the weir and further up river.
