Contaminated Land in Durham

Contaminated land refers to any case where previous land use in Durham, usually industrial, continues to affect a site . Buyers conveyancing solicitors carry out environmental searches to find out if a property may have been built on contaminated land, or if there is such land in the immediate vicinity. With the increasing pressure to reuse land rather than develop greenfield sites, many new housing developments have been constructed on contaminated land. Land contamination can result from a number of processes, including the manufacture or refinement of:

  • Gas, coke or bituminous materials from coal
  • Lead, steel, or alloys
  • Asbestos
  • Petroleum or its derivatives
  • Other chemicals, excluding minerals.
