Flood risk
Rivers, the sea or surface water: in this street's postcodes, 13 addresses are in areas at high risk, 10 at medium risk and 5 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 48 homes the Environment Agency counts, 13 are in areas at high risk, 11 medium, 2 low and 2 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 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.
| Postcode | Planning zone | Addresses at high / medium / low risk | Groundwater |
|---|---|---|---|
| DN8 4JD | zone 3 | 5 / 2 / 0 | unlikely |
| DN8 4JE | not in 2 or 3 | 0 / 1 / 1 | unlikely |
| DN8 4JJ | zone 3 | 6 / 0 / 0 | unlikely |

Recorded floods
1 recorded flood covered 2 of the centres of this street's postcodes, most recently in June 2007 (Ridings Area).
| When | Flood | Source and cause | Postcodes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 Jun 2007 | Ridings Area | Not recorded | DN8 4JJ, DN8 4JW |
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
1 storm overflow within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes spilled 31 times, for 204 hours in all, in 2025. They discharge into River Don (Tidal).
| Overflow | Into | Spills | Hours | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Thorne Stw Yorkshire Water | River Don (Tidal) | 31 | 204 | 260 m |
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 10 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
1 historic landfill site is within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes: the nearest lies under part of it.
| Site | Waste went in | Waste | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| North Eastern Road, Thorne North Eastern Road, Thorne, Doncaster | 1977 to 1980 | Inert, industrial | Under it |
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 60 addresses are between 1 m and 8 m above sea level (4 m on average); the ground rises about 7 m from the lowest to the highest.

Traffic on nearby roads
The busiest counted road within 500 m (0.3 miles) is the A614 between Omega Boulevard and M18, with 12,078 motor vehicles a day on average in 2025, 80 m from the street's postcodes.
| Road | Between | Vehicles a day | Lorries | Ten years before | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A614 | Omega Boulevard to M18 | 12,078 estimated | 1% | +14% since 2015 | 80 m |
| A614 | M18 to LA Boundary | 5,808 estimated; counted 2024 | 7% | +39% since 2015 | 460 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.
How each figure on this page is matched to the street and worked out: methodology.
