House prices in NP19

What homes in NP19 sold for in the five years to 28 August 2026 (the latest sale HM Land Registry has recorded), against the five years before. The average is the middle price, so a few very high or low sales don't move it.

We count ordinary home sales. We leave out bulk sales, sales between companies and repossessions, because their prices don't reflect a normal sale.

Schools in NP19

17 state schools have an NP19 postcode, and 14 more are within a mile of one of its postcodes. Being near a school is not the same as being in its catchment: check admissions with the council.

Estyn, the inspectorate for schools in Wales, stopped giving schools an overall grade from spring 2022, so there is no single rating to show. Each school's inspection reports are on estyn.gov.wales.

Flood risk in NP19

We checked the centre of each of NP19's 1,179 postcodes against the flood risk maps from Natural Resources Wales. 641 sit outside every mapped area, and 538 are in one: 2 at high risk, 23 at medium risk and 513 at low risk. The centre of a postcode is not each home in it, so check an exact address on NRW's flood risk map.

  • High risk from rivers or the sea: Greater than a 1 in 30 (3.3%) chance of flooding each year.
  • Medium risk from rivers or surface water and small watercourses: Between a 1 in 100 (1%) and a 1 in 30 (3.3%) chance of flooding each year.
  • Medium risk from the sea: Between a 1 in 200 (0.5%) and a 1 in 30 (3.3%) chance of flooding each year.
  • Low risk from rivers or surface water and small watercourses: Between a 1 in 1,000 (0.1%) and a 1 in 100 (1%) chance of flooding each year.
  • Low risk from the sea: Between a 1 in 1,000 (0.1%) and a 1 in 200 (0.5%) chance of flooding each year.

The sentence above counts each postcode once, at its highest risk. The table counts it under each source, so a postcode at risk from more than one source appears more than once.

NRW's map takes into account the effect of flood defences where it has information on them. Defences reduce the chance of flooding but do not completely stop it, as they can be overtopped or fail.
