we live in Cockermouth. a town as lovely as it sounds until there is too much rain - not unusual in Cumbria. As we stay where the river cocker meets the river derwent we are vulnerable to flooding = 7 feet deep in 2009 and 5 feet in 2015 . i'm afraid we don't think much about the more pleasant connotations of the name. |
