Recorded area: 537 m²

Address from France’s national address register (BAN), associated with this parcel for information only. Addresses and how they are linked

The parcel (in colour) and its neighbours, from the cadastre; computed perimeter: 175 m. North is up; the bar gives the scale.

The cadastre is a tax record: it does not prove ownership. Why?

The cadastre is a tax record: it does not prove ownership and its boundaries have no legal force (only a surveyor's boundary marking does). Its plan is approximate: especially where it is old, it can be offset by a few metres from the buildings and the aerial imagery. The owner's name is not shown.

What this means for a project

Zone Nh: its category is not standardised; only the commune’s rules say what is allowed there. Guide: Turn the map finding into a specific question
1 prescription, information area or easement touches the parcel (details below): it applies on top of the zone’s rules. Guide: Read the documents, not just the colour
Clay soils: High exposure (100% of the parcel). General rule in medium or high exposure areas: the seller of unbuilt buildable land supplies a preliminary geotechnical study where planning rules permit individual houses. Exposure alone does not establish that this sale is covered. Construction projects are subject to separate rules to check with the professional. Géorisques: soil studies and construction
Plan de prévention des risques naturels concernant le risque retrait et gonflement des argiles covers 100% of the parcel: its rules may forbid or restrict building; read them before any project. Guide: Identify the scope of each finding
Radon potential category 3: it appears in the information given to buyers and tenants; ventilating and, during works, sealing between the ground and the building reduce exposure. Guide: Prepare the formal risk statement

Points drawn from this parcel’s data. They tell you which questions to ask; they do not replace a certificat d’urbanisme or the official statement of risks.

Addresses

Source: Base Adresse Nationale (national address register). “Linked by its position”: the address point lies inside the parcel. “Linked by its building (RNB)”: the building that carries the address in the national building register (Référentiel National des Bâtiments) stands on the parcel. “Linked by IGN (BAN PLUS)”: IGN matches the address to this parcel, the nearest one on the same side of the street, and the address point lies inside it. In these cases the Base Adresse Nationale declares no link.

National clay exposure (BRGM/Géorisques) and labels in the local planning document are separate sources: dates, methods and purposes may differ. Both values are retained; neither replaces the other. Check the national map and local rules with the authorities. Data versions: national clay layer 2026-07-02; GPU extraction 2026-08-15. Géorisques: soil studies and construction

Risks

This information is for guidance only and has no regulatory force: it does not replace the risk statement (état des risques, ERRIAL) to be attached to a sale or a rental, which anyone can produce free of charge on Géorisques.

Some clay soils swell when wet and shrink as they dry, which can crack buildings. The higher the exposure, the more building precautions are needed. A risk prevention plan (PPR) maps the areas exposed to a hazard (flooding, ground movement, an industrial site…) and sets building rules there. The Géoportail de l'Urbanisme does not list every plan yet.

Clay shrink-swell: High exposure (100% of the parcel)
Risk prevention plan: Natural or mining risk plan (PM1) – Plan de prévention des risques naturels concernant le risque retrait et gonflement des argiles – 100% of the parcel
Seismic zone: Zone 1 (very low)
Radon potential: Category 3 (significant)
