Overview

About 15 Chancery Lane

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

15 Chancery Lane is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Dobcross, Oldham, Oldham (OL3 5AE). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. At 62 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (62–149 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (137 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2019–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 20.2% above the 2020 sale price. Last sale on file: £129,000 in October 2020.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 15 Chancery Lane is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL3 5AE. 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 15 Chancery Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 15 Chancery Lane was lodged in July 2015 at band C and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 15 Chancery Lane. 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 3 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL3 5AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15 Chancery Lane is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
