Safeguarding Braithwaite

Flood Monitoring with Dual-Head Solar Cameras

Our remote solar-powered dual-head camera system plays a key role in protecting the village of Braithwaite during times of flooding. Positioned to monitor water levels along Coledale Beck—just before it joins Newlands Beck—the system provides Environment Agency and local authorities with continuous visual oversight of this flood-prone area.

Key benefits:

• Dual coverage – Two camera heads offer wide-angle monitoring of the brook and surrounding infrastructure.

• Real-time updates – Live imagery helps assess water levels and flow conditions instantly from any location.

• Early warning – Enables quicker response to rising water, helping to prevent damage and disruption.

• Fully off-grid – Solar-powered and 4G-connected, the system runs reliably even in remote, power-isolated areas.

By delivering vital, real-time situational awareness, the system helps manage flood risk and supports the safety of the Braithwaite community and nearby transport routes.
