House prices in depth

The postcode sector has a current median sale price of £247,475. That is slightly above the wider district median of £245,000 and below the national median of £284,238. Prices are down 7.7% over the past year and 27.3% over three years. By type, flats have a median of £170,000 from 85 sales, terraced homes £292,475 from 26 sales, detached homes £700,000 from 34 sales, and semi-detached homes £417,500 from only 3 sales, so that last figure is indicative rather than typical.

Crime in context

Recorded crime in the immediate local area stands at 1,070 incidents over the past year. That is 6.3% lower than a year ago, but 33.1% higher than three years ago. Violence and sexual offences remains the most common category, as it was three years ago. The figures point to a lower annual level than last year, while still sitting well above the three-year comparison point.

Flood risk

No flood band is identified for the postcode, so the data provided here does not place it in a recorded flood risk band. That is a simple current classification, not a statement about any individual home or a forecast of future conditions. On the information available, there is no flood band to factor into a general area read.
