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 Bird In Hand Cottage is modelled from its 134 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HR4 8LE. 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. No sale is recorded for Bird In Hand Cottage, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Bird In Hand Cottage was lodged in February 2025 at band D and is valid until February 2035. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to Bird In Hand Cottage. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 25 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HR4 8LE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
