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 have a friend with a house alongside the North Wales main line, it was a gate keepers cottage so it is very close to the line. I thought it would be very noisy but the trains go past so fast there is perhaps 15- 20 seconds of noise and then all is quiet again.
I live miles away from Liverpool airport but the noise from the planes is very annoying especially in the summer when they start early in the morning and the noise lasts for much longer than 20 seconds. When we moved in 40 years ago there were very few planes and they were much quieter.
I know exactly what you mean. I have spent a few weeks at RAF Gibraltar, which is immediately next to the runway. Engines lit, a small taxi, then off they go: no problem.
But daughter used to live in Mortlake, which was immediately under the approach to one of the Heathrow runways. An aircraft passed overhead every minute. ?
