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
4 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the postcode spilled 238 times, for 2,269 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into Dean Burn, River Mardle, River Dart.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| St Lukes Church Cso South West Water | Dean Burn | 23 | 8 | 250 m |
| #N/A South West Water | River Mardle | 32 | 51 | 670 m (0.4 miles) |
| Buckfastleigh Stw South West Water | River Dart | 90 | 1,406 | 1 km (0.6 miles) |
| Buckfastleigh Stw South West Water | River Dart | 93 | 803 | 1 km (0.6 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.
Radon
The postcode is in a 1 km square with radon potential up to 10 to 30%: up to that share of homes there is estimated to be at or above the Action Level of 200 becquerels per cubic metre. At least part of the square is a radon Affected Area, where 1% or more of homes are.
Radon is a natural radioactive gas from the ground that can build up indoors; long exposure raises the risk of lung cancer. A three-month test with two small detectors is the only way to know a home's level, and a high level can usually be brought down with a sump or better ventilation. Homes built here in recent decades should have radon protection under the building regulations (basic protection from 3%, full protection from 10%). UKHSA sells a radon report for a single address from its detailed map at ukradon.org.
