Up to Low likelihood
Properties in LA2 0AG sit in the Environment Agency's Low flood-likelihood band (worst property). The band is the worst found in the postcode — it describes the land around properties (defence-adjusted, rivers & sea), not any single address, and not today's conditions.
| Likelihood band | Annual chance | Properties | Of which homes |
|---|---|---|---|
| High | greater than 3.3% | 0 | 0 |
| Medium | 1% – 3.3% | 0 | 0 |
| Low | 0.1% – 1% | 2 | 0 |
| Very low | below 0.1% | 0 | 0 |
Over a 25-year mortgage, a property in a low-likelihood area has a 2–22% chance of flooding at least once.
LA2 0AG gets about 1,123 mm of rain a year on average (wettest month November, 128 mm; driest April, 59 mm). That is close to the UK as a whole, which averages 1,163 mm a year.
A thirty-year average for the surrounding area, not a measurement at this address and not a flood risk on its own: a dry area floods when a storm sits over it, and a wet one may drain away perfectly well.

The ground here sits at about 24 m above sea level and falls 52 m across the surrounding 800 m. Surface water reaching this point runs off ground lying to the east-north-east, 30.5 m higher.
Two mapped watercourses are about the same distance from the centre of LA2 0AG: Burrow Beck (about 850 m) and the River Lune (about 940 m), so this page cannot say which one is nearer to you.
Distances along the river are from the point on each watercourse nearest the centre of LA2 0AG. From Ordnance Survey’s river map (OS Open Rivers), which leaves out small streams, ditches and culverts, so a nearer one may exist. This describes where water goes on the map; it says nothing about flooding at any address. Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2026.
Because properties in the low likelihood band; 410 official warnings since 2006.
The map above shows the real EA rivers & sea likelihood cells around LA2 0AG. The small panels are illustrative previews of the report's per-layer map views — the full report draws each layer for real, plus recorded extents, defences and a building picker on an interactive map.
Warnings cover flood areas, not individual addresses.
None mapped within ~1 km of this postcode's centre.
No recorded outline near this postcode means no flood was mapped here, which is not evidence none happened: the Environment Agency mapped only some floods, mapping effort rose sharply after about 2000, and surface-water flooding is largely absent from this record. The full report tests every other flood source at the exact building.
