Sold-price trend (1995–2026)

Annual sold price in AL2 1, 1995–2026 — mean (blue) and median (terracotta). The median is the typical sale; a wide gap to the mean means a few high-value sales pull the average up. 2026 is a part year (37 sales so far). Hover a point for both figures. Source: HM Land Registry Price Paid.

How granular is this?

— = no separate figure is published at that level. Most open data is published down to the sector (AL2 1); the postcode column is built from the layers that go finer (sold transactions, Ofcom broadband).
