homecheck tells you all about the pollution and environmental risks around your home. it’s intended as a site for prospective home buyers to find out about the places they are looking to move too. i’m not sure how useful it is myself. ne30 seems to be a high pollution area. we have landslides, a closed landfill site and a licensed waste processing site. it’s in a coal mining area. it’s north east england, i’d have to go some way to not live in a (former) coal mining area. there’s no radon, subsidence or floods and my air quality readings for nasty stuff don’t go above medium to high. i live however with a high risk of industrial pollution. what have i learnt? that i still live in a nice cosy flat by the seaside? i think so.
