Does DN5 flood?

Yes — parts of the DN5 district carry real flood risk: 57 of its 361 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The DN5 postcode district covers Bentley, Roman Ridge, Sprotbrough, Norton & Askern, close to Bentley Ings Screen, Doncaster Strawberry Island, Adwick le Street, and surrounding villages in parts of South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire.

361 postcodes in the DN5 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 57 high, 158 medium, 82 low, 64 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).
