Would you build a house in a Fishlake? It is good to see the overhead cables well above flood level, but some ground located sub-stations could be at risk from flooding.
I think the question is better served by stating: ...Would I now build a house on any village soakaway or floodplane. One assumes that the housing deveolpers do their homework and look at the natural drainage.
We were actually talking about this earlier. We build houses in this country for profit. but when you look at Holland and ask the same question you may discover that their buildings take account of flood defenses and are not built purely for profit.
Maybe we should change the housing policy in this country so less properties are built on green field sites. that is less housing more community living....
