1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 The Stilwell Partnership has been instructed by Brookworth Developments Limited, to undertake
a Drainage Strategy Report and Flood Risk Statement to support a Planning Application for the
proposed development at Lonach, Horley Lodge Lane, Salfords, RH1 5EA.
1.2 The Stilwell Partnership has been instructed by Brookworth Developments Limited to carry out a
drainage assessment to determine how both foul and surface water, from the site, can be
satisfactorily drained and not to increase the likelihood of flooding.
2.0 SITE LOCATION
2.1 The site is located on the western side of the A23 Bonehurst Road, just south of the dual
carriageway. Approximately just 800m from Salfords (Surrey) Train Station. The exact location is
shown in Appendix A. The site is bounded by Oak Lodge Drive along the western boundary with
residential properties to the northern boundary and the western boundary. The access is via
Horley Lodge Lane with runs along the southern site boundary.
2.2 The Local Authority is Reigate and Banstead Borough Council.
3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION AND CONTEXT
3.1 The site is currently occupied by a large detached house. The topographical survey of the site is
included in Appendix B.
Horley Lodge Lane
3.2 Horley Lodge Lane is a narrow residential no through road, being just 4.5m wide at the junction
with Bonehurst Road and just 3m wide adjacent to the site at Lonarch.

4.0 DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
4.1 The proposal is to redevelop the land and provide detached housing containing 4 dwellings. The
properties will be oriented towards Horley Lodge Lane and each will have garden areas at the
front and rear of the properties. All properties will have level access.
4.2 A proposed site layout is included at Appendix C.
4.3 The existing vehicular access will continue to be used, although an internal layout will be
designed in accordance with Design Manual for Roads and Bridges and Manual for Streets which
will serve each property within the site and associated parking.
4.4 The parking areas and turning areas will be formed with porous surfacing to reduce the runoff. If
the underlying soil doesn’t have any infiltration capacity then a partial infiltration pipe will connect
to the surface water system.

5.0 DRAINAGE PROPOSAL
Surface Water
5.1 Currently the site is an existing property situated on a large plot, which is used as gardens and
driveway access. The total site area is 3285m2 and 193m
2 of the total is impermeable. The
proposed layout for the development will include an area of hardstanding which will be an area of
approximately 597m².
5.2 The NPFF recognises that increased run-off rate and volume of surface water can be managed
by minimising changes in the volume and run-off rate from the development sites, and
recommends that the priority is given to use of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDs) in new
development, this being complementary to the control of the development within the floodplain.
For the drainage proposals we propose to provide a sustainable surface water drainage scheme,
inclusive at many measures such as porous paving, water butts, and an underground attenuation
system with a restricted outfall. The design will focus to capture and manage all surface water
within the site boundary to prevent any likelihood of flooding to adjacent properties.
5.3 The primary sustainable drainage technique is infiltration drainage. A detailed soil investigation
has not been undertaken at this preliminary stage, however information of the geology and the
ground water can be checked through the British Geological Survey (BGS) website. There are
available borehole records in the proximity of the site. Boreholes around the site show that the
soil is silty and sandy clay with scattered chalk fragments. And the ground water level is high and
approximately 1.50m below the surface, therefore the infiltration methods may not viable for the
site (subject to a full site investigation).
5.4 All surface water from the roof area and remaining areas will be discharged into the conventional
surface drainage system. The surface water running off from the roof area will be connected into
the rainwater butts; there will be an overflow connection between rainwater butts and the surface
water system. The water then will be gravitated into the existing surface water sewer through an
underground attenuation system. The water will be discharged into the public sewer at a limited
rate subject to Thames Water’s (TW) approval. The discharge rate will be discussed in detail with
Thames Water.

5.5 The runoff rate for different return periods are calculated for the existing site. The results are
presented as follow.
1 in 2 year return event plus CC 1.3 litres / second
1 in 30 year return event plus CC 2.93 litres / second
1 in 100 year return event plus CC 5.9 litres / second
5.6 The discharge rate of the proposed site has been limited to 3 litres/second. This rate has been
chosen as lower rates may create maintenance issues. The surface run-off rate of the existing
site has been calculated and 1 in 2 year return period peak flow for the existing site is 1.3
litres/second, therefore it is not possible in practice to limit the discharge to this level. We
propose to limit the discharge to 3 litres/second by introducing a hydro-brake flow control unit.
5.7 The underground attenuation system (aqua cells crates, or similar) as part of surface water
drainage system will be designed to accommodate for a 1 in 30 year storm event, plus 10% for
climate change. Catch pit manholes will be provided to limit any debris entering the system. The
storage tanks will be sealed to avoid any water infiltration. A copy of the Schematic Drainage
Layout can be seen in Appendix D.
5.8 As stated above, the size of the storage tank has been set for a 1 in 30 year storm event plus
10% climate change, with a discharge rate of 3 litres per second subject to TW approval. A copy
of the attenuation calculations is enclosed in Appendix E. There is a need to store at least
12.32 m3. This has been accommodated in the attenuation tanks.
5.9 By introducing the drainage scheme shown on drawing TSP/BRO/P2456/01 in Appendix D, the
proposed site will have the benefit of managing the surface water on the site. The surface water
discharge will be controlled and discharged over in longer period so this will not cause any risk of
flooding at any downstream site. If found at the detailed design stage that infiltration into the
subsoil can be achieved then infiltration techniques will be introduced to reduce runoff.
Foul Drainage
5.10 The nearest public foul sewer is in Bonehurst Road. The foul water sewer will be connected into
the public sewer via the existing foul connection. The foul water connection is shown on the
Schematic Drainage Layout in Appendix D. The foul water will be discharged at a 0.185
litres/sec rate by gravity into the public sewer based upon 4000 litres/per unit per day. This is
again subject to TW approval but 0.185 litres/second should not cause any capacity issues for
175mm diameter foul public sewer. Indeed only 0.139 litres / second would be new flows as the
site already has one unit.

6.0 FLOODING INFORMATION
6.1 The initial phase in identifying if the site is potentially at risk of flooding is to check the
Environment Agency Flood Zone maps (web based). According to EA’s website the site is not
within a Flood Zone. Therefore there are no modelled flood level data available for the site. A
Flood Map provided by the Environment Agency can be found at Appendix F.
6.2 The nearest watercourse to the site is Salfords Stream which is 410 metres to the north of the
site.
6.3 There are no historical records of flooding at the site. The Strategic Flood Risk Assessment of
Reigate and Banstead Borough Council shows observed flooding events on Flood Risk Map (See
Map of Flood Risk in Appendix G) and according to the map there is no historical flooding at the
proposed site.

The computation is based on the assumption that the storm volume is generated at the attenuation storage vessel in the time given. In practise, there is a
delay, depending on the distance from the storage vessel to the most distant point in the catchment, and also the rate at which the water will flow to it. This
is known as 'The time of concentration'. From the above figures, it can be seen that the critical time is the 10 minute event, and the solution is to provide a
storage volume of 12.32m³ including 10% climate change.
Project: Lonach, Horley Lodge Lane, Salfords
Surface Water Attenuation Calculations
The computation of storage volume is based on BS EN 752-4:1997, and the flood design frequency is 10 years for Rural areas, 20 years for Residential
areas, 30 years for City centres/Industrial/Commercial areas and 50 years for Underground railways/Underpasses
