Does NR16 flood?

Yes — parts of the NR16 district carry real flood risk: 20 of its 36 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The NR16 postcode district covers Forncett, Harling & Heathlands, Guiltcross, All Saints & Wayland, close to East Harling, Shropham, Diss, and surrounding villages in parts of Norfolk and Suffolk.

36 postcodes in the NR16 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 20 high, 6 medium, 10 low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
