How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Sheepwalk Cottage is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PE8 6SE. 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 4 Sheepwalk Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 4 Sheepwalk 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PE8 6SE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
