Reading the evidence

Property type changes the comparison.

The figures separate detached, semi-detached, terraced homes and flats. The largest observed group here was detached, with 159 registered sales. Compare like with like and keep condition, exact location, tenure and floor area outside the scope of this aggregate.

Publication threshold

Every displayed median has support.

Cells with fewer than 5 sales are withheld. Registration data can be revised, and the newest transactions may not yet appear.

What this page can—and cannot—answer

Typical recorded evidence

Use the medians as a starting point for comparing recent registered sales across property types.

No individual valuation

A home can differ materially because of its street, condition, size, tenure, view and transaction circumstances.

Verify the latest record

Check the official register and current local planning information before making a material property decision.

HM Land Registry Price Paid Data.

HM Land Registry standard sales registered from 1 January 2024 to 25 June 2026. Each cell is a median; cells with fewer than five sales are withheld. Registration data can be revised and recent months are provisional. Conservation and brownfield coverage follows the publishing authority's current register. Crime locations are anonymised by the publisher and are retained for area-level context only, never property safety scoring.
