This dataset covers flooding from rivers and the sea only — one of five flood sources. Surface water, groundwater, sewers and reservoirs are assessed separately, so a postcode missing from it is not proof that a place cannot flood. The band describes the land around properties (allowing for defences), not any single address and not today's conditions.

Rivers and live river levels near Calverton

Environment Agency gauges within 10 km of Calverton watch Woodborough Brook, Oxton Dumble, Dover Beck, Cocker Beck, Day Brook, Ouse Dyke, River Leen, Baker Lane Brook, River Trent.

The watercourse nearest Calverton

The nearest watercourse on the river map is Dover Beck, about 870 m from the middle of Calverton's at-risk postcodes. It flows into the River Trent about 11 km downstream.

A gauge downstream shows water that has already passed this point; one upstream sees it first. Distances along the river are from the point on Dover Beck nearest the middle of Calverton's at-risk postcodes. From Ordnance Survey’s river map (OS Open Rivers), which leaves out small streams, ditches and culverts, so a nearer one may exist. This describes where water goes on the map; it says nothing about flooding at any address. Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2026.
