FLOOD RISKS
The Scottish Environment Protection Agency website uses indicative flood maps to provide a general overview of land in flood plains and therefore potentially at risk of flooding by river or sea. We note from enquiries made on the website that an element of the land does fall within an area at risk of river flooding.

A flood risk assessment has been carried out indicating that the site of the proposed dwelling falls outside of the functional floodplain.

VIEWING
