What the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk data says about Thorngumbald

Ordnance Survey places 57 postcodes in Thorngumbald in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset (Risk of Flooding from Rivers and Sea).

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 Thorngumbald

Environment Agency gauges within 10 km of Thorngumbald watch Burstwick Drain, Thorngumbald Drain, North Sea, Keyingham Drain, Holderness Drain, Winestead Drain.

Distances are from the middle of Thorngumbald's at-risk postcodes. Tidal and structure gauges are shown as readings only — the tide and sluice gates move them, not floods. A gauge with no recent reading shows no level.

The watercourse nearest Thorngumbald

The nearest watercourse on the river map is Ryhill Drain, about 650 m from the middle of Thorngumbald's at-risk postcodes. It flows into Ryhill Old Drain about 1.9 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 Ryhill Drain nearest the middle of Thorngumbald'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.
