I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Kirkby Stephen and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated.

It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
