Are new homes being built in Bedale?

7 of the 122 postcodes now in use in Bedale came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 14 of the 70 homes sold in Bedale were newly built (20%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the DL8 district, 15%.

It is for the land, not each building, and leaves out surface water, groundwater and sewers. Each postcode page has its own figures and its flood warning areas.
