Properties in Kent built in close proximity to the path of the River Rother and the River Medway, the Great Stour and other water courses have been subject to flood warnings and alerts from time to time. 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). |
According to the UK Government's Public Health England, some areas of Kent, including around Rochester and Chatham and particularly including a large area of land between Folkestone and Dover and extending northwards (including Aylesham for example and streets such as Spinney Lane in Aylesham), are in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. 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.

Some properties in Kent may be built in areas where there are natural cavities nearby, which can affect ground stability. A recent environmental search carried out for a property in Tubbenden Lane near Orpington indicated that there were natural cavities located within 250m of the property, creating a moderate potential for natural ground instability in the area within 50m of the property.
