Prince William Tours Hidden Dam in England’s Countryside

Added: 2026-05-09

[00:00:00]From butchers and dams to sheep and lambs, the Prince of Wales saw the very best of the Yorkshire Dales, even meeting some of the locals along the way. William got to see a community-owned hydroelect electric plant in action as it powers the homes in this picturesque village. It's helping the community rely less on fossil fuels while reducing the risk of flooding in the village and beyond. This groundbreaking sustainable technology could be used elsewhere in the UK.
