Does BS39 flood?

The BS39 postcode district covers Publow & Whitchurch, Chew Valley, Saltford, Paulton, close to Compton Dando, Chew Magna, Chew Stoke, and surrounding villages in parts of City of Bristol and Bath and North East Somerset.

34 postcodes in the BS39 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 15 high, 4 medium, 15 low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
