Haweswater and The Lost Village of Mardale Green

After a very dry summer the lost village of Mardale Green has reappeared from underneath the surface of Haweswater in the Lake District, Cumbria. The village was submerged when the level of the lake was raised in the 1930's to supply water to Manchester and the north west of England. Haweswater supplies 25% of the drinking water to the north west. Join me for a look around the submerged village including some great footage from the drone.
