Local Tip 1 | Local Tip 2 | Local Tip 3 |
Properties in West Drayton which are built in close proximity to the River Colne, in streets like Frays Avenue and Colne Avenue, are 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). | A recent Environmental Search for a property in 73 Merrivale Mews, West Drayton, Middlesex, UB7 7LZ, stated that the dwelling was within 50m of an area with potential for natural ground instability. The British Geological Survey has assessed the area of search as having moderate potential for natural ground instability. This does not necessarily mean there is cause for concern in terms of the property's stability. Active subsidence will be dependent on local conditions, such as the proximity of trees or areas where trees have been removed, which require an inspection of the site to identify the nature of the ground on which the property is built. A house buyers survey is advised to look for signs of property damage that may indicate poor natural ground conditions. | Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in the West Drayton area mainly centre around the main road – M4, impacting roads and streets such as The Glebe and Fir Tree Avenue. |
