23 Flooding Alleviation Floods near Keswick We think that a combination of some de-drainage, re-establishment of wetlands and flood plain land (with appropriate compensation payments to farmers) and tree planting could significantly reduce flooding risk in our catchments.

24 Floods near Keswick. as well as being environmentally enhancing and encouraging bio-diversity
