Flood: at the town centre the area is in flood zone 1 for rivers and the sea on the Environment Agency's Flood Map for Planning (not in zone 2 or 3, the lowest of the three).
Air: an annual mean on DEFRA's 1 km map at the town centre.

Things to know
  • A town centre with shops and pubs records more crime per resident than a suburb.
  • Flood: surface-water risk is unknown here, we don't hold that map. One point says little about a whole town, and the zones describe the area, not a building: check the address on the Environment Agency's long-term flood risk service.
  • Air: a background figure, not the air beside a busy road.
  • These are for the town centre; an address can differ.
