Does DN1 flood?

Only lower-likelihood flood risk is recorded in DN1: none of its 39 listed postcodes goes beyond the Low band. The DN1 postcode district covers Town, Hexthorpe & Balby North, close to Bentley, Doncaster Strawberry Island, Bentley Ings Screen, and surrounding villages in parts of South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire.

39 postcodes in the DN1 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 13 low, 26 very low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
