Part of the storm damage in and around Keswick appears to include the bridge used on the round to enter Fitz Park. I've seen quite a few shots of damage to main roads as well - the A591 just down from Dunmail Raise towards Wythburn has been washed away by Raise Beck.
Hope everyone in the area is safe.

Looking like the Lakes transport infrastructure is taking an absolute beating.
Stay safe to everyone in risk areas!

Devastating for for all those affected, Carlisle has taken a battering again, my lass had water lapping at the end of her street, she's been lucky only her kitchen ceiling falling in, no power still though, up to the tops of the doors in the worst affected areas
High Coledale Bridge destroyed in Braithwaite. Most shocking of all though is Pooley Bridge being washed away.
Absolutely devastating. I really feel for the folk affected, especially so soon after the last floods. Well done to IDP and all the others involved in helping out.

All the peak teams were there, Mainly water rescue units, I wasn't there but was on stand by
getting about is going to be a night mare for a year or so. Bridges and paths have been washed away.
Think what the lakes is like on a bank holiday then halve the number of roads...terrible
