In the summer of 2022 - one of the driest years on record - I made a video about Thruscross Reservoir and the ruins of a submerged village which can be seen during extremely dry periods. Two years later, in one of the rainiest summers we've seen, I've returned to see just how much it's changed - and what it can tell us about climate, infrastructure, and heritage.
