Does FY3 flood?

Yes — parts of the FY3 district carry real flood risk: 7 of its 13 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The FY3 postcode district covers Marton, Hardhorn with High Cross, Park, close to Poulton, and surrounding villages in Lancashire.

13 postcodes in the FY3 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 7 high, 1 medium, 4 low, 1 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).
