Does FY1 flood?

Yes — parts of the FY1 district carry real flood risk: 18 of its 63 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The FY1 postcode district covers Bloomfield, Victoria, Talbot, close to Poulton, and surrounding villages in Lancashire.

63 postcodes in the FY1 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 18 high, 11 medium, 34 low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
