Based on 586 registered HM Land Registry transactions across 11 years of data, these figures reflect actual completed sales rather than asking prices. Five-year growth compares average prices over 12-month windows; the most recent months may be slightly incomplete due to registration lag (sales can take 2–6 months to appear in the Land Registry).

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the average price for this postcode calculated?

The average is the mean of registered residential sale prices available for this postcode in the Land Registry data. It is based on sold prices, not current valuations.

Are these asking prices?

No. These are completed sold prices recorded by HM Land Registry. They are not estate-agent asking prices, live listings or automated valuations.

Can I use this as a valuation?

No. The page is a research summary of historical sold prices. Use it to understand local evidence, then compare property condition, size, tenure, transaction type and professional valuation advice before making a decision.

Why can small postcode samples look unusual?

Some postcodes have only a small number of recorded sales. A few high or low value transactions can move the average, so the transaction count should be read alongside the price.
