Flood plain & floating structures
If you think your site is blighted by flooding – let Walsingham Planning help you think again
 Walsingham Planning obtained planning permission for the first floating hotel of its kind in the UK at a site in Hartlepool.
This was an innovative, unique, pathfinding project, and as such we worked very closely with the providers of the structure.
With this experience Walsingham Planning can see the huge opportunities that these innovative designs can promote.
These buildings can be permanently floating on tidal, fluvial, lake of reservoir waters or they can be land based and rise as necessary with incoming flood waters.
There are parts of the country where the provision of new housing and other facilities is severely curtailed if development is prohibited within the flood plain. These building techniques offer a simple, cost effective solution to a wide range of similar problems.
Walsingham Planning's expertise and these innovative new building techniques potentially open up previously undevelopable sites.
Some floating structures may not need planning permission. Walsingham Planning can advise you how to take best advantage of the position.
