Properties in Winchester which are built in close proximity to the River Itchen, its tributaries and channels, in streets such as Water Lane and St John's Street, are in areas where flood warnings and alerts are issued 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 parts of Winchester, including streets such as Henry Kingsgate Street and Romans' Road, are 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 of 1-3% (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.

On a recent search completed it was found that a property located on Sleepers Hill, Winchester SO22 5DU, was within 4km of a well used for energy exploration or extraction. Any areas to be explored for their energy potential by the oil & gas industry must be licensed by the Department for Energy and Climate Change. Such exploration includes areas subject to hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") investigation. |
