Description

Geophysical survey was undertaken on agricultural land South and East of the current nuclear power station at Bradwell, Essex. The survey area (180 hectares) comprises approximately 40% of the land within a planning application red line boundary for a proposed new nuclear power station (Bradwell B) at the site. The survey has covered most of the Western half of the application area, a large proportion of which was formerly part of Bradwell Bay Airfield (EHER 16047).
