House prices in depth
The postcode sector median sold price is £127,500, which sits below the wider district median of £161,000 and the national median of £284,238. Flats have a median of £134,998 from 22 sales, while terraced homes show £155,000 from only 3 sales, so that figure is thin and should be treated as indicative rather than typical. On the figures available, the local market sits beneath the broader benchmarks, but the limited terraced sample makes type-by-type comparison uneven.
Crime in context
Recorded crime in the immediate neighbourhood stands at 591 incidents over the past year, and the total is down 1.7% compared with a year ago. Violence and sexual offences remains the most common crime category, as it was three years ago. That points to a broadly similar crime mix at the two end points, with only a modest change in the overall count over the past year.
Flood risk
The available flood band is none identified. That is the clearest summary the data gives, and it suggests no flagged flood band in the area record used here. It does not say anything about individual properties, and it should be read as an area-level indicator rather than a guarantee for any one home.
Flood risk
Rivers & sea: None identified. Surface water: None identified.
