A Norfolk village that suffered severe flooding in 2020 has installed four beaver-inspired "leaky dams" to slow water flow naturally. The £35,000 project comes as East Anglia faces a hosepipe ban during extreme drought, highlighting how communities are preparing for both flooding and increasingly unpredictable weather caused by climate extremes.
