Does BD18 flood?

Yes — parts of the BD18 district carry real flood risk: 8 of its 23 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The BD18 postcode district covers Shipley, Heaton, Windhill and Wrose, close to Saltaire, Cottingley, Bradford Greenside, and surrounding villages in parts of West Yorkshire and North Yorkshire.

23 postcodes in the BD18 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 8 high, 7 medium, 8 low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
