HS2 Guidance The property lies within 5000m of the proposed HS2 route, but the centre of the property does not appear to lie within the Safeguarding zone or the Extended Homeowners Protection Zone. Therefore no compensation payments are likely to be payable with regard to the construction and operation of HS2. A prudent purchaser may wish to check the plans and noise assessments for the development of the route to judge the potential impact of the scheme on their prospective property.

Please note that this assessment takes account of both the original Phase 2b proposed route and the amended route proposed in 2016. As the Phase 2b route is still under consultation, Groundsure are providing information on both options until the final route is formally confirmed. Practitioners should take account of this uncertainty when advising clients. Crossrail 1 Guidance The property lies over 1000m from the Crossrail 1 project. As such, no further guidance is considered necessary.

Oil, Gas, Coalbed Methane and Shale Gas Guidance The property lies within 25km of a former, current or planned hydrocarbon exploration and/or extraction site. A prudent purchaser may wish to check the location and status of these sites in Sections 2.1 and 3.1 to help ascertain whether the site(s) are likely to have any material impact on the homeowner's enjoyment of the property or asset value. Wind Farms Guidance The property lies within 15km of existing and/or planned multiple wind turbine sites. A prudent purchaser may wish to check the location and status of these sites in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 to help ascertain whether the site(s) are likely to have any material impact on the homeowner's enjoyment of the property or asset value. Solar Farms Guidance The property lies within 15km of existing and/or planned solar farms. A prudent purchaser may wish to check the location and status of these sites in Section 4.4 to help ascertain whether the site(s) are likely to have any material impact on the homeowner's enjoyment of the property or asset value. Power Stations Guidance The property lies within 25km of existing power stations and/or existing or planned nuclear sites. A prudent purchaser may wish to check the location and status of these sites in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 to help ascertain whether the site(s) are likely to have any material impact on the homeowner's enjoyment of the property or asset value. The potential impact of any power station will depend on the type of generation as well as the generating capacity. HS2 and Energy Report

High Speed 2

All HS2 route data is subject to change without warning, as the route proposals are often modified in response to consultations. Where possible, Groundsure have used the publicly released version of the data as supplied by HS2 which may not show minor route changes and track type changes.

Please note that this assessment takes account of both the original Phase 2b proposed route and the amended route proposed in 2016. The route data has been supplied by HS2 and augmented with further information by Groundsure. As the Phase 2b route is still under consultation, Groundsure are providing information on both options until the final route is formally confirmed. Practitioners should take account of this uncertainty when advising clients.

The HS2 route is subject to ongoing consultation as the HS2 Hybrid Bill passes through Parliament and may have changed since this information was provided. This report only details the proposed route of the HS2 line from London to Birmingham, and the preferred proposed route from Birmingham to Leeds and Manchester, and does not include other infrastructure associated with route, e.g. Construction sites, roads and road realignments, bridges etc. This report does not confirm if the value of any property will be impacted by the proposed route. The report is point based and should not be used for large estates e.g. farms. It does not imply that properties more than 5km from the route may not be affected by noise, dust or other factors associated with construction and / or an operational railway. This report does not constitute an endorsement or criticism of the proposed rail link and is presented for information purposes only.

The new trains will be up to 400m long and able to carry up to 1100 passengers. Up to 18 trains per hour will be able to use each line, and will be capable of reaching speeds up to 400 km per hour (approximately 248mph). However, the maximum operating speed is likely to be 360 km per hour (224mph).

Information for Householders:

Compensation schemes for householders affected by Phase 1 of the HS2 route either approved or proposed under the HS2 property consultation 2014 include the following:

SCHEMES CURRENTLY AVAILABLE Within the Safeguarded area and extended homeowner protection zone • Right to serve a Blight Notice • Express Purchase* • Rent back Within the Rural Support Zone (up to 120m from track in rural areas) • Cash offer OR voluntary purchase** • Need to sell scheme • Rent back

Report Reference: HS2 and Energy Specimen

Client Reference: Specimen reference

8 Within the Homeowner payment zone (up to 300m from track in rural areas) • Homeowner payments*** • Zone 1: 120m to 180m - £22,500 • Zone 2: 180m to 240m - £15,000 • Zone 3: 240m to 300m - £7,500 • Need to sell scheme • Rent back Outside the Homeowner payment zone (300m+) • Need to sell scheme • Rent back *Surface safeguarding only **Applies to rural areas only and does not extend to area beyond bored tunnels ***Only available after Royal Assent to the Bill. Applies to rural areas only and does not extend to areas beyond bored tunnels

Blight Notice

People owning properties within the surface safeguarding area who satisfy residency requirements can serve a Blight Notice on the government. If the Blight Notice is accepted, the government will buy the property at its un-blighted open market value.

Express purchase

The express purchase scheme is available within the ‘surface safeguarded area’, land which may be required for the construction and operation of HS2.

In addition, those owner-occupiers whose property falls wholly or partly within the Extended Homeowner Protection Zone (the area of the surface safeguarded area in the October 2013 Safeguarding Directions no longer covered by the June 2014 Safeguarding Directions) may also be eligible for express purchase. Owner-occupiers within this zone will remain eligible to submit a Blight Notice for five years (until 25 June 2019).

Under the express purchase scheme owner-occupiers can apply to sell their property to the government at its un-blighted market value plus 10% (up to £47,000) as a ‘home loss payment’ and reasonable moving expenses (including stamp duty).

Rent back

If the government agrees to purchase your property through one of the HS2 schemes but you would like to remain living there, you can ask them to rent it back to you (reliant on certain criteria).

Cash offer

A cash offer scheme will operate in rural areas outside of the surface safeguarding area up to 120m from the centre-line of HS2 for people who do not wish to sell their own and would prefer to stay within their community. Eligible owner-occupiers will be able to receive a lump-sum payment equal to 10% of the un-blighted open market value of the property (from a minimum of £30,000 to a maximum of £100,000). Please note, this scheme is not available to anyone who was aware of the proposed HS2 route when the property was purchased, and cannot be used in conjunction with the voluntary purchase offer detailed below.

Report Reference: HS2 and Energy Specimen

Client Reference: Specimen reference

9 Voluntary Purchase Scheme

Under this scheme, the government will buy a property for 100% of its unblighted open market value if the property lies within the Rural Support Zone. The government will not cover additional costs such as legal fees or removal costs. This offer is not available if a homeowner as accepted the cash offer as described above, and is not available to homeowners who were aware of the proposed HS2 route when the property was purchased.

Need to Sell

This scheme is available to owner-occupiers of properties situated outside other compensation zones who have been unable to sell their property (other than at a substantially reduced price) as a direct result of the announcement of the proposed HS2 route. Please note that this scheme is only available to property owners who purchased the property before 11 March 2010.

Homeowner Payment Zone

This scheme applies to owner-occupiers of rural properties near the line of the route. Payments of between £7,500 and £22,500 are available depending on the distance to line. This scheme is only available to property owners who purchased this property before 9 April 2014.

Further details of all the compensation schemes can be found here .

Crossrail 1 Information

Crossrail 1 is Europe’s largest infrastructure project, comprising of over 100km of new railway stretching from Reading and Heathrow in the west, across Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east. The project will include 21km of new twin-bore rail tunnels and ten new stations. Up to 24 trains per hour will operate in the central section between Paddington and Whitechapel during peak periods, carrying up to 1,500 passengers per train. It will bring an additional 1.5 million people within 45 minutes commuting distance within London’s key business districts. Around 200 million passengers will travel on Crossrail 1 each year and the route will provide a 10% increase to rail capacity in London once open in 2018.

Information for Householders:

Crossrail 1 Information Paper D12 - Ground Settlement - explains the arrangements for assessing, monitoring and mitigating the effects of ground settlement arising from Crossrail 1 construction on individual buildings ("the settlement policy"). The Information Paper includes information on the Crossrail 1 Settlement Deed, including the Deed itself and the qualifying criteria. This is available as a download on the Crossrail 1 website.

WHERE DOES THE CROSSRAIL 1 SETTLEMENT POLICY APPLY?

The Crossrail 1 Settlement Policy applies to all buildings that may be affected by Crossrail 1 tunnelling. But the policy does not apply to new buildings which:

• were granted planning permission after 1 March 2008; or • are not substantially complete ten months before Crossrail 1 plan to start work that will affect the buildings.

Report Reference: HS2 and Energy Specimen

Client Reference: Specimen reference

10 WHO CAN HAVE A SETTLEMENT DEED?

If the settlement policy applies to a property that you own, you can also ask us for a Settlement Deed. This is a formal legal undertaking but you don’t have to enter into a deed to benefit from the settlement policy.

You can have a Settlement Deed if:

• your building is 30 metres or less from Crossrail 1 tunnels or other excavations; • you let Crossrail 1 know you want a deed at least ten months before they start work that may cause settlement beneath your building; and • you sign and return a copy of the deed to Crossrail 1 within 21 days.

The procedure for entering into a settlement deed, which also contains a copy of the application form, is available for download from the Crossrail 1 website, or by application to the Crossrail 1 Helpdesk at: [email protected] . Please read the Information Paper, qualifying criteria and procedure carefully before making any application. It is not necessary to enter into the deed to benefit from the settlement policy.

The route data has been digitised from publicly available maps by Groundsure. The route as provided relates to the Crossrail 1 project only, and does not include any details of the Crossrail 2 project, as final details of the route for Crossrail 2 are still under consultation. The route and distances shown have been digitised from Consolidated Plans in the public domain, published November 2007. This route does not represent the final as-built alignment as tunnelling on the route is still in progress. There is potential for some minor deviation due to geotechnical, engin -eering or other adverse conditions which would in turn affect the final track alignment.

This database shows all existing and historic licensed oil, gas, shale gas and coalbed methane extraction sites, and is supplied by the Department of Energy and Climate Change. The exact type of extraction site is shown in the 'Type' field in the data table above. It shows all wells which hold, or have formerly held, a UK Petroleum Exploration and Development License (PEDL) or its historical equivalent. These wells may have been licensed in any one of the 14licensing rounds which have been undertaken by the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) or any of its predecessors. The data within this section of the report shows wells which were licensed as far back as 1910. This dataset is obtained from DECC and Groundsure will endeavour to update this on a monthly basis.

The presence of a well in this database does not mean that any active exploration or production is occurring, and homebuyers may wish to check whether the well is noted to have a 'completed by' date within the data, which would indicate that no further activity is likely to take place at the site.

This data shows areas which have been licensed to individual companies for Petroleum Exploration and Development in onshore areas of the UK.

Being within a licensed block does not mean that petroleum, gas, coalbed methane or shale gas exploration will definitely happen in proximity to a property, just that an operator has won the right to explore within that area if they choose to.

This data shows areas which have been offered to companies in the 14th round of onshore licensing. A total of 139 licences were awarded in this round, and no further licences will be offered until the 15th round of licensing. There is no current timetable for the 15th round of licensing.

It should be noted that once a licence is taken up, carte blanche is not given for oil and gas exploration in the area. The requisite planning applications and environmental permits for each individual well or borehole still need to be acquired.

2.4 Further Guidance Notes

Terms of Petroleum Exploration and Development Licenses:

Term Length Phase Expiry of License (years) Initial 6 Exploration At end of the Initial Term unless the Licensee has completed the agreed Work Programme. Second 5 Appraisal and At end of the Second Term unless Secretary of State (SoS) has approved a Development Development Plan. Third 20 Production SoS has discretion to extend Licence if production likely to continue past 20 years

Notes on shale gas extraction:

Hydraulic fracturing, 'hydrofracing' or 'fracking', is an unconventional method of extracting natural gas from within shale rock formations. Shale gas is typically found in formations with low permeability which require stimulation to be extracted. This stimulation usually takes the form of hydrofracing, which involved the creation of fractures in the rock containing gas through the injection of water at high pressure, along with a proppant and other chemical additives. A 'proppant' is a solid material, commonly comprising treated sand or man-made ceramic materials which maintain fissures so the gas is able to flow from the fractured rock. The process of hydrofracing commonly uses between 4-6 million gallons of water per well, and cannot be undertaken using saline water.

The process had been subject to a moratorium following the implication of the activity in two small earthquakes (2.3 ML and 1.5 ML on the Richter magnitude scale according to the British Geological Survey) in proximity to Blackpool in April and May 2011. This moratorium was effectively lifted in December 2012 by the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change in a statement to parliament. The statement was based upon the introduction of new regulatory requirements to ensure that seismic risks are effectively mitigated.

4.4 Solar Energy

Solar farms are the large-scale application of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) installations used to generate electricity. Solar farms go through a rigorous planning procedure to get approval. This takes into account the suitability of the site, any potential impact on the locality and relevant renewable energy targets. Generally the land beneath can still be used for agricultural grazing, and can be returned to general agricultural use at the end of the solar farm’s lifespan.

The UK needs solar power to meet the 15% EU renewable energy targets by 2020. DECC considers that solar PV could contribute up to 20 gigawatts (GW) of generating capacity by 2020. For every 5MW installed, a solar farm will power 1,515 homes for a year and save 2,150 tonnes of CO2. 5MW of generating capacity requires approximately 25 acres of land.

Is the property within 15km (approx) of any DECC-registered Solar Farms? Yes
