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. 4 sales are recorded for 9 Birchwood. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NR7 0RL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
