Flood risk
Rivers, the sea or surface water: in this street's postcodes, 0 addresses are in areas at high risk, 0 at medium risk and 2 at low risk. Each address counts once, at the higher of its rivers-and-sea and surface-water risk.
Rivers and the sea alone: no home is in an area at risk.
High: 3.3% (1 in 30) or more chance of flooding a year. Medium: 1% to 3.3%. Low: 0.1% to 1%. Very low: under 0.1%. The rivers and sea figures allow for flood defences. Counts cover whole postcodes, which can include other streets.
Flood zone for planning: no postcode centre on this street is in flood zone 2 or 3.
| Postcode | Planning zone | Addresses at high / medium / low risk | Groundwater |
|---|---|---|---|
| SR2 0NR | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 0 / 2 | unlikely |
| SR2 0PF | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 0 / 0 | unlikely |
| SR2 0PH | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 0 / 0 | unlikely |
Recorded floods
No recorded flood covers the centre of any of this street's postcodes.
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
The nearest projected erosion zone is 150 m from the street's postcodes (by 2105, with the shoreline management plan carried out).
| Projection | Policy for the frontage | Erosion | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| By 2055, with the shoreline management plan carried out | Managed realignment The Tyne to Flamborough Head | up to 33 m | 220 m |
| By 2105, with the shoreline management plan carried out | Managed realignment The Tyne to Flamborough Head | up to 104 m | 150 m |
| By 2105, if defences are not maintained or built | No intervention The Tyne to Flamborough Head | up to 104 m | 150 m |
Each shoreline management plan sets a policy for each stretch of coast: hold the line (keep defences where they are), managed realignment (let the shore move back in a controlled way), advance the line, or no active intervention. Erosion is the distance the shore may move back, counted from today, for the higher central climate change allowance. The maps are guidance from national modelling, not a survey of any one home; the council's coastal team can say more.
Storm overflows
2 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 72 times, for 117 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into North Sea.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ryhope Cso Northumbrian Water | North Sea | 30 | 49 | 360 m |
| Cso Salterfen Su47 Northumbrian Water | North Sea | 42 | 68 | 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
3 of the street's 3 postcodes are in a coalfield, in a low risk area: coal was mined in the area, but no workings shallow enough to matter for building are recorded.
Conveyancers usually still order a coal mining search (CON29M) for a home in a coalfield.
Radon
The highest radon potential in the 1 km squares around the street's postcodes is 1 to 3%: 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 that area 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. UKHSA sells a radon report for a single address from its detailed map at ukradon.org.
Historic landfill
2 historic landfill sites are within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes, the nearest 50 m away.
| Site | Waste went in | Waste | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ryhope Dene North Ryhope, Sunderland | Not recorded | Not recorded | 50 m |
| Ryhope Dene Ryhope, Sunderland | Not recorded | Not recorded | 360 m |
Closed tips can give off gas (methane and carbon dioxide) and leak into the ground for years. An environmental search, which conveyancers usually order, looks at landfill and contaminated land around the home; the council keeps a register of land it has found to be contaminated.
Height above sea level
The street's 13 addresses are between 28 m and 32 m above sea level (30 m on average).

Nearest schools

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| St Patrick's Catholic Primary School, Ryhope Roman Catholic | Primary | 4–11 | 670 m (0.4 miles) | Good (Mar 2024, overall grade under the previous framework) | 58% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 11% at the higher standard (2025; 54% in 2024 and 39% in 2023) |
| St Paul's CofE Primary School Church of England | Primary | 3–11 | 830 m (0.5 miles) | No published inspection | 88% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 19% at the higher standard (2025; 73% in 2024 and 81% in 2023) |
| Ryhope Junior School | Primary | 7–11 | 1.1 km (0.7 miles) | Report card (Jun 2026): Curriculum and teaching: Expected standard; Achievement: Expected standard; Attendance and behaviour: Strong standard; Personal development and wellbeing: Strong standard; Inclusion: Strong standard; Leadership and governance: Strong standard; Safeguarding standards: Met | 67% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 8% at the higher standard (2025; 58% in 2024 and 65% in 2023) |

Exam results are from the Department for Education's school performance tables (Explore Education Statistics, Open Government Licence), for all pupils at each school. The middle school in England had 63% at the expected standard at the end of primary school (2025), Attainment 8 of 46.0 at GCSE (2026) and an A level average of C+ (2025). Attainment 8 adds up a pupil's grades in eight GCSEs, with English and maths counted twice (90 is the most), averaged over the school's pupils. Progress 8 compares pupils with others who had the same results at the end of primary school; it is not published for GCSEs in 2025 and 2026, as those pupils sat no primary tests during the pandemic. Small year groups swing from year to year, and figures for very small ones are withheld.

Traffic on nearby roads
The busiest counted road within 500 m (0.3 miles) is the A1018, with 15,714 motor vehicles a day on average in 2025, 310 m from the street's postcodes.
| Road | Between | Vehicles a day | Lorries | Ten years before | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A1018 | Not recorded | 15,714 estimated; counted 2022 | 2% | 310 m |
Each figure is the annual average daily flow: the motor vehicles passing the count point, both ways, on an average day of the year. A point is counted by hand on a weekday every few years and estimated from the trend on similar roads in between. Lorries are heavy goods vehicles, as a share of all motor vehicles.

What this page cannot tell you
- Whether a particular house is at risk of flooding, subsiding or anything else: the flood map is a model of areas and there is no property-level data here.
- What a home is worth now: sales are historic prices for the homes that happened to sell.
- How safe the street is: crime points are moved to anonymised locations and many crimes are never reported; road collisions count only those in which someone was hurt and the police were told.
- Whether you would get a place at a school: distances are straight lines, not catchments.
- Who lives on the street now: census figures describe the small areas around it in March 2021, during a lockdown.
- How long a journey takes or how often anything runs: transport distances are straight lines to the nearest stops.
- Whether a GP practice is taking new patients, or a dentist new NHS patients.
- How loud a home is inside, or noise from industry, neighbours or smaller airfields: noise figures are models of road, rail and air traffic outside.
How each figure on this page is matched to the street and worked out: methodology.
