Does LN11 0NX flood?

Up to High likelihood

Properties in LN11 0NX sit in the Environment Agency's High 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.
