  • Air pollution: more polluted than 75% of councils
  • Heat risk: cooler than 65% of councils
  • Subsidence risk: lower risk than 58% of postcodes
  • Green space access: better green access than 94% of English postcodes

What is the flood risk in DN35 0AD?

Flood risk at DN35 0AD is rated Medium, based on Environment Agency NaFRA2 modelling.

Environment Agency flood zone data places DN35 0AD in the medium flood risk band. EA NaFRA2 data shows 2 at medium risk, 4 at low risk in this postcode. The band reflects the highest flood risk within the postcode; some properties within this postcode may face little or no direct flood risk. Individual properties within DN35 0AD can differ - a formal flood risk search is recommended before any property transaction.

How is the air quality in DN35 0AD?

Air quality at DN35 0AD is rated Medium, based on Defra UK-AIR annual mean PM2.5 data. Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) comes primarily from road traffic, industry, and domestic burning. Long-term exposure above the WHO guideline of 5 µg/m³ is linked to respiratory and cardiovascular health risks. Buyers and renters in higher air quality risk areas may wish to consider whether the property is near busy roads or industrial sources.

Is subsidence a risk at DN35 0AD?

British Geological Survey data classes the underlying soil at DN35 0AD as Quaternary Marine/Estuarine Sand And Silt, with shrink-swell hazard rated improbable (subsidence risk band: Low). A structural survey is the reliable way to assess ground conditions for a specific property.

Is DN35 0AD at risk of coastal erosion?

The nearest projected coastal erosion zone to DN35 0AD is 39 m away (Erosion projected by 2055 (no climate change uplift) - SMP policy: Hold The Line mapping) and the postcode is in the very high coastal erosion risk band. Coastal erosion risk varies along the shoreline depending on local geology, sea defences and Shoreline Management Plan policy. Check the Shoreline Management Plan for this stretch for the projections that apply to a specific property.

Where does this data come from?

This LocalRisk report for DN35 0AD draws on four official UK open data sources: Environment Agency NaFRA2 flood modelling, Met Office UKCP18 climate projections, Defra UK-AIR PM2.5 monitoring, and British Geological Survey GeoClimate subsidence mapping. Risk ratings are a screening tool, complementing - not replacing - the searches and surveys ordered as part of a property transaction. Data covers North East Lincolnshire and is updated as new official datasets are published.

About the North East Lincolnshire area

North East Lincolnshire has a low-lying coastal and estuarine setting with extensive flat land and urban development and experiences cool, wet winters and mild summers, influenced by North Sea exposure and flat terrain.

What should buyers and renters check in DN35 0AD?

Practical check: EA flags 6 properties at flood risk here, near the coast - compare the floor level to the highest recorded tide line and check for flood resilience measures. With PM2.5 above WHO guidelines here, check which bedrooms face busy roads and how fresh air is drawn into living spaces. The nearest projected erosion zone is 39m away - check the Shoreline Management Plan policy for this stretch and whether the property is within 100 years of the erosion line. These are postcode-level indicators - conditions vary between individual properties.
