House prices in depth
The postcode sector median sold price is £147,000, which is below the wider district median of £230,000 and the national median of £284,238. Prices are down 3.9% over the past year and 47.6% over three years, so the current figure is well below where it was before. Flats account for most of the recent sales, with a median of £145,000 from 127 sales. Terraced homes show £70,000, but that comes from just one sale, so it should be treated as indicative only.
