Does WA7 flood?

Yes — parts of the WA7 district carry real flood risk: 12 of its 50 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The WA7 postcode district covers Daresbury, Moore & Sandymoor, Beechwood & Heath, Mersey & Weston, Halton Castle, close to Penketh, Sankey, Acton Bridge, and surrounding villages in parts of Warrington and Cheshire West and Chester.

50 postcodes in the WA7 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 12 high, 14 medium, 19 low, 5 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).
