Check if land you're buying is contaminated
When you buy land in Southwark we’ll tell you if it is contaminated. You can also ask us to search our records by making a 'land use enquiry' to find out if land is or was contaminated and if it has been cleaned up.
You can also search our register of contaminated land ‘remediation’ (how the pollution has been cleaned up).
