Flood risk
Rivers, the sea or surface water: in this street's postcodes, 26 addresses are in areas at high risk, 12 at medium risk and 21 at low risk. Each address counts once, at the higher of its rivers-and-sea and surface-water risk.
Rivers and the sea alone: of the 57 homes the Environment Agency counts, 0 are in areas at high risk, 0 medium, 0 low and 4 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: at least one postcode centre is in flood zone 2. Zone 2 is between 0.1% and 1% a year from rivers (0.1% and 0.5% from the sea), ignoring defences.

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
8 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 71 times, for 112 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into Trib River Darwen, River Darwen, River Blakewater, The River Blakewater, A Tributary of the River Darwen.

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
10 of the street's 32 postcodes are in a coal mining high risk area, where coal mining features at or near the surface, such as shallow workings or old mine shafts, are recorded or likely and could affect the ground. 22 more are elsewhere in the coalfield, at low risk.
Ask your conveyancer for a coal mining search (CON29M) on the home: it says what is recorded beneath and near it, and whether there have been claims for subsidence damage.
Radon
The highest radon potential in the 1 km squares around the street's postcodes is 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 that area is a radon Affected Area, where 1% or more of homes are.
By postcode centre: 1 to 3% (7); 3 to 5% (6); 10 to 30% (20).
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.
Historic landfill
4 historic landfill sites are within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes, the nearest 0 m away.
| Site | Waste went in | Waste | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Star Paper Mill Livesey Branch Road,Feniscowles,Blackburn,Lancashire | from 2011 | Not recorded | 0 m |
| Sun Paper Mill Preston Old Road, Feniscowles, Chorley, Lancashire | 1955 to 1976 | Inert, industrial, commercial | 20 m |
| St Frances Road Playing Fields St. Frances Road, Fenniscliffe, Blackburn, Lancashire | until 1967 | Not recorded | 80 m |
| Stockclough Quarry LCC Stockclough Lane, Feniscowles, Lancashire | 1977 to 1989 | Industrial, commercial, household; gas control on site | 290 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 510 addresses are between 80 m and 115 m above sea level (104 m on average); the ground rises about 35 m from the lowest to the highest.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Feniscowles Primary School | Primary | 4–11 | 240 m | No published inspection | 56% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 7% at the higher standard (2025; 66% in 2024 and 49% in 2023) |
| St Paul's Roman Catholic Primary School, Feniscowles, Blackburn | Primary | 4–11 | 560 m (0.3 miles) | No published inspection | 59% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 6% at the higher standard (2025; 76% in 2024 and 81% in 2023) |
| Livesey Saint Francis' Church of England School | Primary | 4–11 | 1.2 km (0.7 miles) | Good (Jul 2023, overall grade under the previous framework) | 60% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 3% at the higher standard (2025; 57% in 2024 and 68% in 2023) |
| St Bede's Roman Catholic High School, Blackburn | Secondary | 11–16 | 1.7 km (1 mile) | No overall grade (Mar 2025, graded inspection without an overall judgement): Quality of education: Good; Behaviour and attitudes: Good; Personal development: Good; Leadership and management: Good | GCSE 2026 (provisional): Attainment 8 45.4 (47.4 in 2025 and 44.1 in 2024); 51.9% grade 5+ in English and maths |
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 A674 between LA Boundary and A6062, with 15,473 motor vehicles a day on average in 2025, 100 m from the street's postcodes.
| Road | Between | Vehicles a day | Lorries | Ten years before | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A674 | A6062 to A674 Freckleton St/King St | 11,324 counted 2025 | 2% | -12% since 2015 | 30 m |
| A674 | LA Boundary to A6062 | 15,473 estimated; counted 2021 | 3% | +15% since 2015 | 100 m |
| A674 | A6061 to LA Boundary | 15,473 estimated; counted 2021 | 3% | +15% since 2015 | 150 m |
| A6062 | A674 to A666 | 7,803 estimated; counted 2021 | 2% | +18% since 2015 | 400 m (0.2 miles) |
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.
