Are new homes being built in Poynton?

19 of the 307 postcodes now in use in Poynton came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to September 2025, 14 of the 270 homes sold in Poynton were newly built (5%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the SK12 district, 7%.

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 Poynton at risk of flooding?

25 of the 307 postcodes in Poynton 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 18 homes and businesses in an area at high or medium risk.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk, at 25 of 307 postcodes High: 9Medium: 9Low: 222Very low: 10

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.
