A bridge in Cockermouth is being blamed for some of the town's flood problems.
Jonty Chippendale, a local businessman, says: "As soon as the river hits the top of the arches Gote Bridge becomes a dam, and that dams us all to flooding, Frankly, the time has come for Gote bridge to go."

British Transport Police say they've stepped up patrols on the Lakes railway line after a train window was smashed by a stone near Kendal.
One of the passengers was Michael Crick, the Channel 4 political journalist.
A BTP spokesman said the incident happened about 20:45 on Saturday. There's an appeal for witnesses.
Two specialist dogs have started training in Cumbria to help scenes of crime officers find traces of blood and similar clues,
Harley (pictured) and Hansa are two fox-red Labradors and just nine weeks old.
They'll have 12 months' training in searching crime scenes and finding everything from traces of blood to bodies.
Sgt Mark Yielder from the police dog unit said: “Once fully trained, the dogs will be able to find vital evidence such as drops of bloods in a fraction of the time it would take officers to do so, cutting down the number of resources needed to search.”
Cumbria police say the force's call centre has been hit by a computer failure. 999 calls are being dealt with by emergency operators, but the centre cannot deal with 101 calls at the moment.
A meeting in North Cumbria this evening will discuss fears for the future of a town's cottage hospital.
Brampton War Memorial Hospital is one of nine similar facilities in communities across the north of the county, often used for older patients to recover after a stay in a main hospital in Carlisle or Whitehaven.
The trust that runs hospitals across north Cumbria has been struggling for years and a project called the success regime is now reviewing all the options. It says there'll be a public consultation later this year.
John Holland, who's chairman of the Brampton League of Friends, is organising the meeting at 19:30 at William Howard School in Brampton.
He says: "These beds are massively used, not just Brampton, all the community hospitals are 90% full because step-down patients desperately need those places to avoid clogging up the Cumberland Infirmary."
The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for heavy, thundery showers on Tuesday afternoon over parts of Cumbria.
