Started, not reported finished by 31 October 2026

Flood risk
Rivers, the sea or surface water: in this street's postcodes, 2 addresses are in areas at high risk, 2 at medium risk and 8 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: 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
2 recorded floods covered the centre of this street's postcodes, most recently in November 2019 (Incident; main river).
| When | Flood | Source and cause |
|---|---|---|
| 7 Nov 2019 | Incident | Main river; channel capacity exceeded (no raised defences) |
| 15 Jun 2007 | Beighton to Catcliffe, River Rother | Main river; overtopping of defences |
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
4 storm overflows within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 29 times, for 27 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into River Rother, Ochre Beck, Tributary of the River Rother, Shire Brook.
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tulip Tree Close Cso Yorkshire Water; monitored 62% of the year | River Rother | 10 | 13 | 240 m |
| Queens Road Beighton Cso Yorkshire Water | Ochre Beck | 0 | 0 | 390 m |
| Greengates Lane Cso Yorkshire Water | Tributary of the River Rother | 8 | 7 | 780 m (0.5 miles) |
| Beighton Stw Yorkshire Water | Shire Brook | 11 | 7 | 940 m (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
This postcode is 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 postcode is in a 1 km square with radon potential up to 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 the square 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
3 historic landfill sites are within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes, the nearest 220 m away.
| Site | Waste went in | Waste | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brookhouse Works Beighton, Sheffield | from 1977 | Inert, industrial, commercial, household, liquid sludge | 220 m |
| Beighton Miners Welfare Club Rotherham Road, Beighton, Sheffield | 1980 to 1994 | Inert | 260 m |
| Land East of Rotherham Road / Formerly Beighton Coke Oven Works and Brookhouse Colliery Rotherham | 1988 to 1991 | Inert, industrial, commercial, special (hazardous), liquid sludge | 430 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 21 addresses are between 33 m and 37 m above sea level (35 m on average).

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 A57 between LA Boundary and B6200, with 29,476 motor vehicles a day on average in 2025, 220 m from the street's postcodes.

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.
