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. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Alexandra Road. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from CF5 1NS.
