About 18a

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

Period features are noted in the property record.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in March 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
