Homes with gas used 6,920 kWh of it on average in 2024, 21% less than the district's 8,716 kWh, and 2,021 kWh of electricity, 32% less than the district's 2,977 kWh. There are gas meters for about 100% of the homes.
These are all the homes on the postcode, whatever their size and however many live in them, so they show the kind of homes and heating here rather than what any one home uses. The typical figure is the median: half the homes used less. The district is BN23.
Council tax
What each band costs in Eastbourne in 2026-27: Band D £2,654 a year on average, including the police, fire and any county and parish charges.

- Article 4 direction (removing permitted development rights): none recorded, though not every council has published theirs.
- Tree preservation orders: none recorded, though not every council has published theirs.
- Green belt: no.
Brownfield land registered for housing within 1 km (0.6 miles)
- Sovereign Harbour Site 2: up to 6 homes, not permissioned (910 m (0.6 miles))
Energy projects nearby
No wind turbine or waste plant within 5 km (3.1 miles), and no solar farm, battery site or other project of 1 MW or more within 2 km (1.2 miles), of the street's postcodes, operating or planned.
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: of the 9 homes the Environment Agency counts, 0 are in areas at high risk, 0 medium, 0 low and 9 very low.
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: the postcode centre is in flood zone 3. Zone 3 is a 1% (1 in 100) or greater annual chance of flooding from rivers, or 0.5% from the sea, ignoring defences.
Recorded floods
No recorded flood covers the centre 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 170 m from the street's postcodes (by 2105, if defences are not maintained or built).
| Projection | Policy for the frontage | Erosion | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| By 2055, with the shoreline management plan carried out | Hold the line South Foreland to Beachy Head | none (the line is held) | 190 m |
| By 2105, with the shoreline management plan carried out | Hold the line South Foreland to Beachy Head | none (the line is held) | 190 m |
| By 2105, if defences are not maintained or built | No intervention South Foreland to Beachy Head | up to 20 m | 170 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
3 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 59 times, for 238 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into The English Channel.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eastbourne Wwtw Southern Water | The English Channel | 54 | 229 | 510 m (0.3 miles) |
| Eastbourne Wwtw Southern Water; monitored 70% of the year | The English Channel | 0 | 0 | 510 m (0.3 miles) |
| Eastbourne Wwtw Southern Water; monitored 70% of the year | The English Channel | 5 | 9 | 510 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.
Radon
The postcode is in a 1 km square 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
5 historic landfill sites are within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes, the nearest 150 m away.
| Site | Waste went in | Waste | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Langney Point Langney Point, Eastbourne, Sussex | Not recorded | Not recorded; gas control on site | 150 m |
| Langney Point Tower Eastbourne, Sussex | 1950 to 1973 | Inert, commercial, household; gas control on site | 150 m |
| Crumbles Area No.3 Eastbourne, Sussex | from 1977 | Inert | 390 m |
| Tramways, Sovereign Centre Eastbourne, Sussex | 1974 to 1975 | Inert, commercial, household; gas control on site | 440 m (0.3 miles) |
| Macleans Site Southwater, Eastbourne, Sussex | Not recorded | Inert; gas control on site | 460 m (0.3 miles) |
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 addresses are about 4 m above sea level.

| St Catherine's College Church of England | Secondary | 11–16 | 1.5 km (1 mile) | Good (Nov 2019, overall grade under the previous framework) | GCSE 2026 (provisional): Attainment 8 45.6 (47.6 in 2025 and 48.1 in 2024); 45.2% grade 5+ in English and maths |
| Langney Primary Academy | Primary | 2–11 | 1.6 km (1 mile) | No published inspection | 53% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 0% at the higher standard (2025; 46% in 2024 and 61% 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.

Road safety
No collisions in which someone was hurt were reported on and around the street in 2021 to 2025.
Only collisions in which someone was hurt and which the police were told about are here: damage-only collisions and near misses are not, and some injuries are never reported. Positions are recorded by the police, usually to within a few metres. Each year's figures are published the following September.
Traffic on nearby roads
No traffic count point is within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes. The Department for Transport counts every motorway and A road and only a sample of minor roads, so a quiet residential street usually has none.

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 each figure on this page is matched to the street and worked out: methodology.
