About 21 Ribble Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
21 Ribble Street is a mid-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 6ET). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £138,000 sits 367.8% above the 1995 sale of £29,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£21/sq ft) was about 21.6% below the postcode norm.

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 21 Ribble Street is modelled from its 131 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 6ET. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 21 Ribble Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 21 Ribble Street was lodged in May 2014 at band D and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 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 21 Ribble 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 6ET, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 21 Ribble 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.
