Dispute flooded hamlet

[edit]

There is no hamlet of Baitings that has been flooded under the dam. Look at any map and you'll see there is no hamlet in fact no building are under the water whatsoever. There were a few farms above the waterline that were cleared. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AGW68 (talkcontribs) 15:43, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
