The derelict Northern town rising from the ashes – thanks to Putin
After years of neglect, this ‘Bournville of weapons’ is powering Britain’s rearmament
Summary of the challenges and context for the multi agency #teambarrow work in Barrow-In-Furness. Though, I do bristle when I read terms like ‘derelict’, purely as it fails to communicate the fantastic community spirit, environment and culture here. www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

A map illustrating the changing landscape of the North Sea region over time, specifically focusing on Doggerland, a now-submerged landmass that connected Great Britain to mainland Europe. The map shows the ice sheet coverage at different points in time (16,000 BC, 8000 BC, 7000 BC), revealing how the landmass gradually became submerged as sea levels rose.
Just 9,000 years ago Britain was connected to continental Europe by an area of land called Doggerland, which is now submerged beneath the southern North Sea. Part of the reason why the UK is a world leader in off-shore windfarms.
