Cookie policy

What we set before you choose

Only storage the site cannot work without: the enquiry form you are part-way through, and the record of the cookie choice itself. No advertising or analytics storage is written until you accept it.

The four categories

Strictly necessary — the state of a form in progress and your cookie choice. Cannot be switched off.

Preferences — remembers your shortlist and the filters you last used, so you do not set them again on every visit. Off until you allow it; without it the shortlist lasts only for the current visit.

Analytics — counts visits and measures which parks and homes people look at, in aggregate. Off until you allow it.

Marketing — would support advertising and measure whether it worked. We run no advertising at present, so this currently does nothing even when switched on. It is listed because that may change, and because a policy that hides a category is not a policy.

Changing your mind

Use the “Cookie settings” link in the footer at any time. Your choice is recorded with the date and the version of this policy it was made against, and we ask again if the policy materially changes.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser. Blocking the strictly necessary ones will stop the enquiry form from working.

Third-party storage

Map tiles are served by tile.openstreetmap.org. Loading a map means your browser requests images from that host, and it sees your IP address as a result. Fonts are self-hosted on this domain precisely so that no font CDN sees your visit.

How long they last

Session storage clears when you close the tab. The cookie choice itself lasts twelve months, after which we ask again. Preference storage lasts six months from your last visit.
