Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 2, about 60 metres away.

Surface water

High risk (1 in 30)

Not at the pin: mapped about 140 metres away.

These bandings are the summary. Where this location sits on the flood maps, plus planning activity, heritage and ground risks, is in the full report.

Important notice: Information, maps and tags on this page are drawn from the advertising agent's marketing materials or generated automatically. LandSale has not verified them. Relying on these details is at your own risk, always carry out independent checks before committing to a purchase.
