17 of the 384 postcodes now in use in Newhaven came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 0 of the 192 homes sold in Newhaven were newly built (0%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the BN9 district, 0%.

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.
