River terrace sand and gravel over mudstone and sandstone
Altrincham sits on river terrace sand and gravel, with mudstone, siltstone and sandstone beneath — the Bollin valley ground rather than the clay that covers the east of the county.
Free-draining ground, which makes life simpler. Water passing through a permeable surface can soak away locally rather than needing to be collected and taken somewhere, so the sub-base does less work and the whole build is more forgiving.
Trafford publishes no Article 4 schedules at all, so while no hard-surface restriction is listed, that is unlisted rather than disproven. Its published direction covers gates, walls and the demolition of walls in eight heritage locations — and knocking through a front boundary wall is how most driveways get built.
Ground descriptions come from the British Geological Survey’s national mapping at 1:625,000 — that is regional coverage, not a survey of your garden, and it will not show made ground or local pockets of peat. We check the actual ground when the dig opens up. For the planning side across every council in the region, see our guide to driveway planning permission in Greater Manchester.
