About 5 Cromwell Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5 Cromwell Street is modelled from its 129 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 1RL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 5 Cromwell Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

The latest one for 5 Cromwell Street was lodged in August 2016 at band E and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Cromwell Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 41 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 1RL, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 5 Cromwell Street is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
