Are new homes being built in Litherland?

5 of the 413 postcodes now in use in Litherland came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 5 of the 159 homes sold in Litherland were newly built (3%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the L21 district, 15%.

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.

Standard sales of homes at market value that HM Land Registry marks as newly built. New homes take longer to be registered than other sales, so the latest 12 months count fewer of them than were sold. A share is given from 5 sales or more.

Is Litherland at risk of flooding?

None of the 413 postcodes in Litherland is on the Environment Agency's list of postcodes with a home or business in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea.

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.

Police.uk says its locations "always represent the approximate location of a crime". Each crime is moved to the nearest of a fixed list of map points, each over a street centre, a public place or a commercial premises, chosen so that every point covers at least eight addresses or none. A mile is a wide circle: in a town it takes in the centre and its shops, where much crime is recorded.
