Recorded floods
No recorded flood covers the centre of this postcode.
Recorded floods are where floodwater was seen or surveyed after a flood. Many floods were never mapped, an outline over a postcode's centre does not mean every home in it flooded, and homes outside one may have. Ask the seller whether the home itself has flooded.
Coastal erosion
No projected coastal erosion zone is within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the postcode.
Storm overflows
1 storm overflow within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the postcode spilled 2 times, for 16 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into The Potwell Tributary.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hambleton Road Waterlooville Cso Southern Water | The Potwell Tributary | 2 | 16 | 550 m (0.3 miles) |
A storm overflow lets sewage diluted with rainwater into a river, stream or the sea when heavy rain overwhelms the sewers, so the spills here affect the water they run into, not homes. A spill is counted the regulators' way: a first 12 hours, then each 24 hours it goes on.
Coal mining
No postcode centre here is in a coalfield: the Mining Remediation Authority records no coal mining risk here.
Historic landfill
No historic landfill site is within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the postcode.
Height above sea level
The postcode's addresses are about 36 m above sea level.
Broadband
