| Postcode | Electricity meters | Typical electricity | Gas meters | Typical gas |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NE8 2LS | 68 | 1,980 kWh | 69 | 7,948 kWh |
| NE8 2LT | 29 | 2,030 kWh | 32 | 8,205 kWh |

| NE8 2HR | 69 | 1,614 kWh | 68 | 7,794 kWh |
These are all the homes on each 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 NE8.

Flood risk
Rivers, the sea or surface water: in this street's postcodes, 7 addresses are in areas at high risk, 0 at medium risk and 19 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| NE8 2LS | not in 2 or 3 | 6 / 0 / 12 | unlikely |
| NE8 2LT | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 0 / 0 | unlikely |
| NE8 2NA | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 0 / 1 | unlikely |
| NE8 2GY | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 0 / 3 | unlikely |
| NE8 2HR | not in 2 or 3 | 1 / 0 / 3 | unlikely |
| NE8 2PD | 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
No projected coastal erosion zone is within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes.
Storm overflows
16 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 313 times, for 982 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into River Tyne, Tyne Estuary, River Team (Estuary), River Team Estuarine Waters and others.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Teams Cso Johnson Street E17-105 Northumbrian Water | River Tyne | 0 | 0 | 170 m |
| Teams Cso Johnson Street E17-105 Northumbrian Water | River Tyne | 48 | 143 | 170 m |
| Rose Street Cso Northumbrian Water | River Tyne | 23 | 67 | 210 m |
| Cso Dunn Street Northumbrian Water | Tyne Estuary | 26 | 47 | 330 m |
| Essex Close Cso Northumbrian Water | Tyne Estuary | 10 | 5 | 330 m |
| Cso Water Street Northumbrian Water | Tyne Estuary | 26 | 55 | 500 m (0.3 miles) |
| Cso at Team Street Northumbrian Water | River Team (Estuary) | 17 | 149 | 530 m (0.3 miles) |
| Bensham Cso Northumbrian Water | River Team Estuarine Waters | 16 | 60 | 530 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
3 of the street's 6 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. 3 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
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
3 historic landfill sites are within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes, the nearest 20 m away.
| Site | Waste went in | Waste | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Redheugh Gasworks Team Street, Dunston, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear | 1984 to 1993 | Inert | 20 m |
| Redheugh Gasholder Team Street, Dunston, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear | 1989 to 1991 | Inert | 220 m |
| Ropery Road Teams, Gateshead | Not recorded | Not recorded | 250 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 114 addresses are between 9 m and 33 m above sea level (19 m on average); the ground rises about 24 m from the lowest to the highest.

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 A184 between A1114 mid-junction and A189, with 40,066 motor vehicles a day on average in 2025, 220 m from the street's postcodes.
| Road | Between | Vehicles a day | Lorries | Ten years before | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| A189 | A184 to LA Boundary | 37,663 estimated; counted 2023 | 1% | +9% since 2015 | 440 m (0.3 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.
