Flat purchase

I've had an environmental search on a purpose built flat, that has come up as a site the local council will be inspecting for contaminated land (previous petrol station), albeit not a high priority. It is not currently designated contaminated land.
Will the mortgage company reject the application on this basis, should I give it a wide berth?

    First up I'm not sure what logic you used to determine that the 'credit cards' section of the forum was the most relevant bit to ask this question....

    If its not possible to get the council inspection/survey done and it'll remain an unknown/risk is there some form of specialist insuranc you could take out (like the church chancel charges thingy?)

    otherwise leave it
