There's one in Sedbergh which I go to sometimes, which has a flood warning
siren, if it goes off you're supposed to make for high ground :-)

The skifield and it's associated campground near here (Mt Ruapehu) has a
flood warning siren that activates in case of a lahar from the crater
lake at the top of the mountain. You're supposed to remember which bits
of the mountainside are "safe" and head to them if the siren sounds.
Strangely they have placed the campground in an unsafe area.

That campsite in Sedburgh Austin. Is that the one with the toilets built in
the old sewage tanks right by the river??. I spent a week there a few years
ago and watched the river rise over 4ft one night....no siren though.

's called Pinfold. It got snazzy new toilet block and so 2 or 3 years ago.
I don't know if the siren actually works, certainly there used to be a big
notice about it and I think that's still there.
