Ordnance Survey places 47 postcodes in Willerby 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 Willerby

Environment Agency gauges within 10 km of Willerby watch Setting Dyke, Western Drain, Broadlane Beck, Fleet Drain, River Hull, Barton Haven, West Clough.

The watercourse nearest Willerby

The nearest watercourse on the river map is Sand Dike, about 920 m from the middle of Willerby's at-risk postcodes. It flows into Acre Head Drain about 1.0 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 Sand Dike nearest the middle of Willerby'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.
