Overview

About 11 Thornley Lane

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

11 Thornley Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Grotton, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 5RH). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 97), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 112 m² it sits well below the postcode median (182 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 12 years since the last transfer (November 2014). Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 is 49.1% above the 2014 sale price.

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 11 Thornley Lane is modelled from its 112 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in OL4 5RH. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 11 Thornley 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 11 Thornley Lane was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 11 Thornley 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 5 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL4 5RH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
11 Thornley Lane is in council tax band E. 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.
