| RG7 6TL | 8 | 5,598 kWh | under 5 |

| RG7 6TE | 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
No storm overflow outlet is within 1 km (0.6 miles) of the street's postcodes.
Coal mining
No postcode centre on the street is in a coalfield: the Mining Remediation Authority records no coal mining risk here.
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
2 historic landfill sites are within 500 m (0.3 miles) of the street's postcodes, the nearest 340 m away.

| Manor View Farm Bucklebury, Reading, Berkshire | 1984 to 1986 | Inert | 460 m (0.3 miles) |

Nearest schools
| School | Phase | Ages | Distance | Inspection | Exam results |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bucklebury C.E. Primary School Church of England | Primary | 3–11 | 1.9 km (1.2 miles) | No overall grade (Oct 2024, graded inspection without an overall judgement): Quality of education: Good; Behaviour and attitudes: Good; Personal development: Outstanding; Leadership and management: Good | 53% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 0% at the higher standard (2025; 44% in 2024 and 58% in 2023) |
| St Finian's Catholic Primary School Roman Catholic | Primary | 4–11 | 2 km (1.2 miles) | Report card (May 2026): Curriculum and teaching: Expected standard; Achievement: Expected standard; Attendance and behaviour: Expected standard; Personal development and wellbeing: Strong standard; Inclusion: Strong standard; Leadership and governance: Expected standard; Early years: Expected standard; Safeguarding standards: Met | 71% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 6% at the higher standard (2025; 41% in 2024 and 54% 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.
Nurseries and childcare
No nursery, pre-school or out-of-school club on Ofsted's register is within 1.5 km (0.9 miles) of the middle of the street.
Ofsted also registers 92 childminders and 11 home childcarers (nannies) in West Berkshire. It does not publish their addresses, so they cannot be shown here; the council's family information service lists those taking children.

Policing
This street is policed by Thames Valley Police. Of the 169,185 crimes it recorded in 2025/26 (April to March), 8.0% had led to someone being charged or summonsed to court, against 9.3% across England and Wales.
In the 12 months November 2025 to October 2026 it answered 92.9% of its 395,930 999 calls within 10 seconds, against a national target of 90% and 89.6% across England and Wales.
| Outcome | Thames Valley Police | England and Wales |
|---|---|---|
| Charged or summonsed | 8.0% | 9.3% |
| Dealt with out of court (caution, community resolution, penalty notice) | 6.4% | 4.4% |
| Closed with no suspect identified | 36.0% | 37.8% |
| Closed: the victim did not support further action | 26.1% | 25.4% |
| Closed: suspect identified, but not enough evidence | 15.0% | 15.1% |
| Other outcomes (not in the public interest, transferred elsewhere) | 4.9% | 3.9% |
| No outcome yet (still under investigation) | 3.7% | 4.0% |
Each crime is counted under the outcome it had been given when the figures were taken, a few months after the year ended, so some recorded late in the year were still being investigated. Forces differ in the crimes they deal with (a city force has more shoplifting and fewer rural thefts), which changes these shares, so a difference from England and Wales is not by itself a measure of how well a force investigates. Fraud is not included: it is recorded nationally.
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.

Change is in percentage points of the vote on 2019, recalculated for the 2024 boundaries (the notional result), so it compares like with like where the constituency changed shape; it is blank where the party or candidate did not stand in 2019.

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.
