Are new homes being built in Marlborough?
23 of the 270 postcodes now in use in Marlborough came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to September 2025, 1 of the 137 homes sold in Marlborough were newly built (Under 1%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the SN8 district, Under 1%.
The newest postcodes
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.
New homes among the homes sold
| Period | In Marlborough | Across the SN8 district |
|---|---|---|
| The 12 months to September 2026 | 0 of 97 (0%) | 0 of 247 (0%) |
| The 12 months to September 2025 | 1 of 137 (Under 1%) | 1 of 327 (Under 1%) |
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.

Ofcom reports on 240 of the 270 postcodes in Marlborough. At 174 of them every home and business can get gigabit broadband.

Is Marlborough at risk of flooding?
27 of the 270 postcodes in Marlborough 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 95 homes and businesses in an area at high or medium risk.

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.
