sea level

Does anyone know the height above seal level of Podington, Northamptonshire (NN29 7XA)?

The village of Podington is, in fact, in Bedfordshire. There is an Ordnance Survey �spot height� of 81 metres just to the south-west of the village. The postcode which you provided seems to refer to the �Three Shires Riding Centre� just to the west of Santa Pod raceway. There are no spot heights marked near here, but a contour line at 100 metres passes nearby.

Yup, judgej's spot height seems to be the official altitude. See...

But I shouldn't worry about global warming and rising sea levels just yet!

That postcode also covers the Santa Pod Raceway so if you are trying to ascertain the elevation of the track itself it ranges between 103m and 107m (according to Google Earth).
