Your HS2 Compensation questions answered

Many Ickenham residents are confused and worried about HS2’s plans for compensation (Assuming we don’t get the tunnel).

This links to three downloadable maps in .pdf format which you can browse at leisure (and zoom into to see the detail).

While researching HS2 compensation in general, we found a link to good plain english explanations by property consultants Roger Hannah & Co – well worth a look.
