Recorded Flood Extents shows areas that have been recorded to have flooded in the past from rivers, the sea or surface water. The records come from a number of evidence sources including Natural Resources Wales, its predecessors or other Risk Management Authorities.

It is possible that the pattern of flooding in an area may have changed and would now flood under different circumstances. In addition, the absence of a recorded flood extent does not mean that the area has never flooded, only that we do not currently have records of flooding in this area.
