Does RH5 flood?

Yes — parts of the RH5 district carry real flood risk: 21 of its 38 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The RH5 postcode district covers Mickleham, Westcott & Okewood, Holmwoods & Beare Green, Capel, Leigh, Newdigate & Charlwood, Tillingbourne, close to Dorking, Sidlow, Leatherhead, and surrounding villages in parts of Surrey and West Sussex.

38 postcodes in the RH5 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 21 high, 2 medium, 13 low, 2 very low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
