Are new homes being built in Chard?

33 of the 369 postcodes now in use in Chard came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 12 of the 228 homes sold in Chard were newly built (5%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the TA20 district, 4%.

A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.

Is Chard at risk of flooding?

7 of the 369 postcodes in Chard have a home or business in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, the Environment Agency says. At those, it puts 49 homes and businesses in an area at high or medium risk.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk, at 7 of 369 postcodes High: 44Medium: 5Low: 12

High: 3.3% or more a year (1 in 30). Medium: 1% to 3.3% a year. Low: 0.1% to 1% a year. Very low: under 0.1% a year (1 in 1,000). Each band is the chance of flooding in any one year.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, as the Environment Agency counts them, added up over the postcodes. 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.
