Flood Risk
Surface Water
Very low
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.

Rivers & Seas Flooding Risk to Property
Flood Risk - Rivers & Seas

This map shows the chance of flooding from rivers and / or the sea, taking into account flood defences and their condition.

The map does not contain sufficient information for it to be used to determine flood risk to individual properties, but it does give you an indication of whether your area may be affected by surface water flooding at this risk level.

Risk Rating:
High
  • High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
  • Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
  • Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
  • Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Chance of flooding to the following depths:
Up to 20cm (8in)
Up to 30cm (1ft)

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
