Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£332/sq ft) was about 42.9% below the postcode norm. 10 planning records sit against the property, 9 approved, 1 refused.
