Defence of the Realm: Relics of World War Ii Around Lancaster
DEFENCE OF THE REALM: RELICS OF WORLD WAR II AROUND LANCASTER Andrew White It is appropriate following the year that marks the 60th anniversary of VE Day to examine the traces, which the Second World War left on the landscape around Lancaster. Much of this has to be based upon field survey and oral recollections of people who were about at the time, for the little that exists in the way of official record tells only part of the story. Already the traces of defence works, mainly from the early part of the War, and especially 1940, are passing out of memory. A person must now be at least 68-70 years old to have even the haziest recollection, and older still for these memories to be detailed. At the beginning of the war Lancaster and its area were justifiably considered to be reasonably safe. There was little strategic industry and a large rural hinterland lay to the north and east. The greatest risk was from bombers unloading their cargoes if they lost their way or failed to make targets such as Barrow-in-Furness, with its strategic shipbuilding industry. However, during the spring and summer of 1940 the 'Phoney War' gave way to a German attack on the west, with the sudden fall of France and the occupation of neutral Belgium and Holland (Gilbert 1995). All at once the Channel coast of Europe was in German hands and Britain appeared next in line for invasion. It was in the context of that sudden threat that many of the defensive structures were set up over a very short space of time. -

River Kent and South Lakes: a Chronology of Flash Flooding
RIVER KENT AND SOUTH LAKES: A CHRONOLOGY OF FLASH FLOODING Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century. This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The main source for this study has been from newspaper accounts. Newspaper descriptions include much that is of human interest but only limited information which could be used to define the magnitude of the flood. It is only the latter information which has been extracted for the most part, indicating levels or depths on roads and buildings which may still be identifiable. Such details provide a means of assessing the comparative magnitude of floods. The main information for Kendal is found in the Westmorland Gazette with a record which commences in 1818, although some papers are missing in the early years and continues to the present. This was inspected for each event. In addition the Kendal Mercury provided corroborative evidence for floods in the mid nineteenth century. Associated meteorological information The publication British Rainfall 1863 – 1968 (Symons British Rainfall from 1863 to 1900) was inspected to identify potential flood dates and to ascertain the meteorological conditions associated with flooding – thaw, thaw with rain, frontal rainfall, convectional storms etc. The online British Newspaper Archive has a limited number of newspapers and years of record available for Cumbria.
