Does NG24 2DN flood?

Up to Low likelihood

Properties in NG24 2DN 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.
