Yes — parts of the NE39 district carry real flood risk: 4 of its 7 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The NE39 postcode district covers Chopwell and Rowlands Gill, Derwent & Pont Valley, Crawcrook and Greenside, Blaydon, close to Rowlands Gill, Blackhall Mill, Tanfield, and surrounding villages in parts of County Durham and Tyne and Wear.
7 postcodes in the NE39 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 4 high, 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).
