Important Notice

Please note that this terrace of cottages has experienced flooding in the past, with water ingress recorded during major storms in 2009 and 2015. Since then, significant investment and flood mitigation work have been carried out, including culverting of storm water by the Environment Agency. Additional protective measures include flood gates at both front and rear entrances, and the construction of a protective wall to the front of the cottages (completed in 2019) designed to reduce the risk of surface water ingress.
