The flood defence prevents the water from getting out into houses, parks, towns etc. :)
Buildings and towns can make floods worse by increasing surface runoff due to impermeable surfaces like pavement and concrete, which prevent water from being absorbed into the ground. Additionally, if developments are located in flood-prone areas or if drainage systems are inadequate or poorly maintained, this can contribute to flooding. Finally, alterations to natural drainage patterns or waterways can also exacerbate flood risk in built-up areas.
In Cumbria, towns such as Keswick, Cockermouth, and Kendal have historically been among the most affected by severe flooding, particularly during the 2009 and 2015 flood events. These areas often experience significant water damage due to their proximity to rivers and lakes, as well as the topography of the region. Infrastructure and homes in these towns face ongoing challenges from heavy rainfall and rising water levels. Efforts to improve flood defenses and resilience are ongoing to mitigate future impacts.
