SUMMARY Thirty seven sites in the Eamont catchment were electro-fished in 1993 to assess juvenile salmon and trout (salmonid) populations. The survey was targeted at fish normally less than 2 years old by selecting sites with a shallow riffle pool structure. The deeper (>lm) waters associated with larger trout were not surveyed so it is essential to interpret the results for older brown trout with caution.

    Eamont Bridge Future Flood Risk Management December 2017 Background Following Storm Desmond, flood risk management authorities were commissioned by Government to reduce flood risk not only at community level, but to look for options to reduce flood risk across the County from Source to Sea. This means we have taken a new approach, working at a catchment scale to integrate land management, development and resilience from the tops of the fells down to the coast. In order for us to deliver flood risk benefits across the County in this way we are now part of an established partnership called Cumbria Strategic Flood Partnership (CSFP). What does Cumbria Strategic Flood Partnership do? The CSFP aims to lead, coordinate and monitor the management of flood risk across the County. This Partnership brings together Flood Risk Management Authorities including the Environment Agency, Cumbria County Council, District Councils, United Utilities and representation from other organisations including land managers and community groups who have an interest in, or responsibility for, flood risk management. The CSFP is structured over two levels – the Board (strategic level) and Catchment Management Groups (operational/delivery level). The Board takes an overview of the whole Partnership, setting the direction and ensuring the three Catchment Management Groups deliver their objectives. The Board is currently chaired by Cumbria County Council and the Eden Catchment Management Group is chaired by Eden Rivers Trust. Cumbria Strategic Flood Partnership Community representation A key objective of this Partnership is to ensure communities are represented at both a strategic level and at an operational level. The CSFP has appointed 6 Regional Flood and community representatives (2 for each catchment area) Coastal Committee to be a member of the Board and Catchment Management Group.

We hope you will join us in making lists of all the things that cheer you, unfortunately exotic travel is out of the question unless you are Richard Branson and have your own island! Watch out for more ideas on how to KEEP YOURSELF CHEERFUL HISTORY IN THE MAKING The UK’s first stainless steel road bridge was officially opened on Friday (23 October) over the River Eamont at Pooley Bridge. Measuring 128ft long, the landmark structure reconnects the Ullswater valley with a permanent new bridge to replace the 18th Century stone structure destroyed during Storm Desmond in December 2015. Cumbria County Council has delivered the multi-million pound bridge, a flagship scheme in the council’s Infrastructure Recovery Programme which has repaired damage inflicted by Storm Desmond to over 450 bridges as well as large sections of road and other highway infrastructure. The new bridge at Pooley Bridge is now open to traffic and pedestrians. It will boost the economy and transport links for local people in this popular Lake District beauty spot. The bridge was designed as a single span structure to avoid the need for piers in the river, thereby reducing the flood risk and making the structure more flood resilient. In total, around 80 tonnes of stainless steel has been used, 2,000 tonnes of concrete laid and 650 square metres of locally sourced stone.

    Mapping the Late Medieval and Post Medieval Landscape of Cumbria Two Volumes Volume 1: Text Caron Egerton Newman Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology Newcastle University Submitted: June 2014 Abstract This study is an analysis of the development of rural settlement patterns and field systems in Cumbria from the later medieval period through to the late eighteenth century. It uses documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. This evidence is interpreted utilising the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), map regression and maps created by the author, summarising and synthesising historical and archaeological data. The mapped settlement data, in particular, has been manipulated using tools of graphic analysis available within a Graphical Information System (GIS). The initial product is a digital map of Cumbria in the late eighteenth century, based on the county-scale maps of that period, enhanced with information taken from enclosure maps and awards, and other post medieval cartographic sources. From this baseline, an interpretation of the late medieval landscape was developed by adding information from other data sources, such as place names and documentary evidence. The approach was necessarily top-down and broad brush, in order to provide a landscape-scale, sub-regional view. This both addresses the deficiencies within the standard historical approach to landscape development, and complements such approaches. Standard historical approaches are strong on detail, but can be weak when conclusions based on localised examples are extrapolated and attributed to the wider landscape. The methodology adopted by this study allows those local analyses to be set within a broader landscape context, providing another tool to use alongside more traditional approaches to historic landscape studies.
