What Does West End (Eastleigh)'s Flood Risk Classification Mean?

1.2% of postcodes in West End (Eastleigh) sit in Flood Zone 3, the planning band for land with a 1% or greater annual chance of river flooding or 0.5% or greater of sea flooding — and the map that draws it deliberately ignores flood defences.
