Descoperire spectaculoasă într-un lac din Anglia: Seceta a dezvăluit ruinele unui sat dispărut

Severe drought in England has revealed the ruins of Nether Hambleton, a village submerged 50 years ago for Rutland Water reservoir. The foundations and walls of the old buildings became visible due to a significant drop in water levels. The reservoir, completed in 1976, was the largest artificial lake in Europe at the time, flooding over 3,000 acres. This summer's extreme weather has led to a 16% decrease in reservoir levels, marking the driest July in the region in decades. Approximately 71.3% of England is experiencing 'flash drought', with authorities warning that water levels won't recover without substantial rainfall.
