The Yorkshire postcodes with the highest proportion of deaths from Covid-19

The ONS statistics show the number of deaths from any cause per postcode between March and June, the number certified as being caused by Covid-10, and the coronavirus figures as a percentage of the total number.

In the largest cities of Bradford, Leeds, Sheffield and Hull, there are some neighbourhoods where over half of recorded deaths were directly caused by coronavirus, and in some places, more than 60 per cent were.

However, there are still some lucky postcodes which have had no coronavirus deaths at all during the epidemic.

Barnsley

The former mining town has been badly hit by coronavirus, with an outbreak at a meat processing factory in Wombwell in which several workers died receiving media coverage.

Wombwell South is the worst-affected postcode, with 24 deaths from coronavirus in four months. That's out of a total of 57 deaths from all causes - or 42.1 per cent.

Seven other postcodes have recorded a proportion of deaths from Covid-19 at over 30 per cent - Royston West; Royston East and Carlton; Shafton and Upper Cudworth; Mapplewell and Staincross; Thurnscoe; Wosbrough Common and Bolton-upon-Dearne. Mapplewell and Staincross had 23 coronavirus deaths out of an overall total of 76.

Bradford

The city includes one postcode with one of the highest death rates in Yorkshire - the inner suburb of Manningham and Lister Park. Eighteen residents have died from coronavirus - but with only 34 deaths in total, that means Covid-19 has been responsible for 52.9 per cent of them.

The affluent spa town of Ilkley and the nearby village of Ben Rhydding, which have large elderly populations, have lost 28 people, with 32.2 per cent of the deaths in the March - June period caused by Covid-19.

Bingley Town has had 26 coronavirus deaths, out of 70 overall - a proportion of over 30 per cent.

Great Horton and Brackenhill also has a proportionate death rate of 52 per cent - 21 people have died from Covid-19 out of a total of 40.

Saltaire and Baildon West have lost 20 people to the virus, Crossflatts and Eldwich 16, Undercliffe 15, and Fairweather Green 19. The proportionate rate for Chellow Heights is a high 42.9 per cent, but this equates to nine Covid-19 deaths from 21 recorded.

Calderdale

The postcode of Illingworth and Ogden has recorded zero deaths until June.

Calderdale has not suffered as badly as some neighbouring towns and cities. No area has had more than the nine deaths recorded in Savile Park, which was 27 per cent of the total of 33 from all causes.
