A lawn at Blackwell house being layed out for Lawnpaper, part of the William Morris exhibition, where the environmental artist Steve Messam is cutting the lawns into a William morris pattern. The grass on the lawn is becoming brown and dried up due to the drought in Cumbria, which has had only 50% of average rainfall since December 2009. It seems ironic that we are now in a drought only 6 months after the worst ever floods to hit Cumbria. Computer modelling of how the weather and climate will change predicts exactly this, for the NW UK, that we wil get periods of excessive rainfall, followed by periods of drought. Whilst the rainfall totals for the year may remain similar, its distribution throughout the year will alter markedly, with far greater peaks and troughs.
