Buying a House in Horley?

March 17th, 2005

Make sure you quiz the Estate Agent thoroughly as houses in Surrey, surrounding Horley, are more than likely going to be at risk from the knock on effect of the Horley Master Plan (to recap, the authorities want to build 2600 houses on a know flood plain). The houses close to the River Mole and the Burstow Stream (Mole tributary) are going to be worst affected but, any low area, of which Horley has plenty, is going to be a high risk of flooding.

If the Horley Masterplan does in fact go ahead and coupled with the South East Plan where up to 33,00 new homes are to be built PER ANNUM, buying a house in Horley or the surrounding areas - the buyer ought to be aware that flooding could be imminent!
