How this area has changed
Typical prices for terraced houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Birchtrees Croft | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector B26 1 | £236,750 | £179,000 +32% since | £162,750 +45% since | £125,000 +89% since | £116,750 +103% since |

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
Crime within about 500 metres. Last 12 months vs the 12 months before: 67 vs 78 (-14%)
