How this area has changed

Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Queen Street – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector CA28 7 – Not enough sales Not enough sales £141,665 £85,000
Copeland – £78,000 £80,000 £134,500 £85,500

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.
