Does NE1 flood?

Yes — parts of the NE1 district carry real flood risk: 7 of its 13 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The NE1 postcode district covers Monument, Ouseburn, close to Gosforth, Lamesley, Woolsington, and surrounding villages in parts of Tyne and Wear and County Durham.

13 postcodes in the NE1 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 7 high, 3 medium, 3 low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
