Consultation – Reforming approach to floods funding

Posted on July 2, 2025 by ecwlarcombe

Consultation and call for evidence – Open until 29/7/2025

Reforming our approach to floods funding: Including a call for evidence on: alternative sources of funding; and English devolution and flood risk management

This consultation is asking for feedback on two main proposals:
• The first is on our proposed simplified approach to funding new flood resilience projects.
• The second is on our proposed approach to prioritise flood resilience projects.

The consultation also includes a call for evidence on two wider floods investment areas – seeking views on alternative sources of funding to enable government funding to go further as well as exploring opportunities for English devolution to support flood risk management.

HORTON

The village name "Horton" is a common one in England. It is Old English in origin and derives from the two words horu 'dirt' and tūn 'settlement, farm, estate', presumably meaning 'farm on muddy soil'.In the Domesday Book of 1086 it was recorded as Hortune.
