@eclectech I guess despite being above water, they don't have rising damp issues, as their foundations are a bridge!

@greenpete I wonder how high the water can get?! It was originally an apple store (I think), but was lived in at some point too.

@eclectech There seems to be some hills in the background, so run off may be significant, but it's clearly old, and has stood the test of time, so I imagine not too high.

@greenpete @eclectech it's only a ghyll, so not much water.

Water off fells goes to Windermere, then to River Rathay
