Overview

About 26 Birch Field

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

26 Birch Field is a four-bedroom detached house in Clayton-Le-Woods, Chorley, Chorley (PR6 7RE). It has a recorded floor area of 185 m² (around 1991 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 185 m² the property is well over the postcode median (117 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 16.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold August 2022 for £440,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 26 Birch Field is modelled from its 185 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR6 7RE. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 26 Birch Field. 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 26 Birch Field was lodged in July 2015 at band D and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 26 Birch Field. 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 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR6 7RE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
26 Birch Field 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.
