River terrace sand and gravel over mudstone and sandstone
Hale sits on river terrace sand and gravel over mudstone, siltstone and sandstone — the same free-draining valley ground as neighbouring Altrincham.
It drains well, which is the ideal starting point for a permeable driveway. On this ground infiltration usually works rather than merely being claimed, so a resin bound surface can deal with its own water without an engineered outlet.
Trafford is the authority here for both planning and the crossing. It permits your own contractor to build the crossing under a Section 50 licence, and publishes two different deposit figures — £60.38 on one page and £60.30 on another, neither dated.
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.
