Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.

- We don't publish an estimate for 55 Napsbury Lane because there is no EPC to tell the model the home's size and specification. The full report sets its records against recent comparable sales in AL1 1DU.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 55 Napsbury Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL1 1DU, not by walking route.
