Energy projects nearby
2 energy projects near the street's postcodes.
| Project | Kind | Size | Stage | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mark's Quarry County Durham CMA/4/10 | Landfill Gas | 1 MW | Operational Dec 2003 | 2.1 km (1.3 miles) |
| High Haswell Wind Farm County Durham PLAN/2007/0223 | Wind 2 turbines | 4 MW | Operational Mar 2011 | 3.9 km (2.4 miles) |
Planned projects can change or not go ahead; search the planning authority's applications by the reference shown for the plans, conditions and any objections. Construction brings traffic for some months; once built, solar farms and batteries are usually quiet, while turbines and waste plants can be seen or heard further away.
Roadworks
No street works under way, planned or finished in the last three months on this street, in permits up to 31 October 2026.
Flood risk
No address in this street's postcodes is in an area at high, medium or low risk of flooding from rivers, the sea or surface water. The rest are in areas at very low risk: less than a 0.1% (1 in 1,000) chance a year.
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.
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
No projected coastal erosion zone is within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes.
Storm overflows
5 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 52 times, for 274 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into Pittington Beck, Coalford Beck.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low Pittington Pumping Station Northumbrian Water | Pittington Beck | 16 | 137 | 180 m |
| High Pittington Csos, Mhs 27,28&Amp;29 Northumbrian Water | Coalford Beck | 0 | 0 | 740 m (0.5 miles) |
| High Pittington Csos, Mhs 27,28&Amp;29 Northumbrian Water | Coalford Beck | 4 | 1 | 740 m (0.5 miles) |
| High Pittington Stw Cso Northumbrian Water | Coalford Beck | 4 | 1 | 760 m (0.5 miles) |
| High Pittington Sps Northumbrian Water | Coalford Beck | 28 | 134 | 770 m (0.5 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
2 of the street's 2 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
Every 1 km square the street's postcodes are in is in the lowest band of radon potential: fewer than 1 home in 100 is estimated to be at or above the Action Level. It is not a radon Affected Area.
Historic landfill
No historic landfill site is within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes.
Height above sea level

Nearest schools
| School | Phase | Ages | Distance | Inspection | Exam results |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pittington Primary School | Primary | 2–11 | 770 m (0.5 miles) | No published inspection | 65% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 4% at the higher standard (2025; 81% in 2024 and 74% in 2023) |
| Belmont Cheveley Park Primary School | Primary | 3–11 | 1.8 km (1.1 miles) | Good (Apr 2024, overall grade under the previous framework) | 72% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 9% at the higher standard (2025; 68% in 2024 and 65% in 2023) |
| West Rainton Primary School | Primary | 2–11 | 2 km (1.2 miles) | No published inspection | 76% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 0% at the higher standard (2025; 76% in 2024 and 63% 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.

No nursery, pre-school or out-of-school club on Ofsted's register is within 1.5 km (0.9 miles) of the middle of the street.
Ofsted also registers 167 childminders and 16 home childcarers (nannies) in Durham. It does not publish their addresses, so they cannot be shown here; the council's family information service lists those taking children.

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.
