Being a coastal town, Folkestone can be subject to flood alerts from time to time. THis includes roads such as The Stade, Lower Sandgate Road and roads within the town such as Sussex Road and Pavillion Road. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). |
Larger roads in Folkstone cause raised levels of noise pollution such as Shorncliffe Road, Cheriton Road and the A259. The railways line also adds to this. Streets affected by the noise pollution include Joinston Road, Millfield Road and Wiltie Gardens. |
According to the UK Government's Public Health England, the north of Folkestone, including Downs Road and Wood Avenue, is in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential 5-10% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). If you are concerned that a property you are buying is in an area of raised Radon, please click to visit Public Health England's UK Radon Map.
