- 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 30 Hemingford Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

The latest one for 30 Hemingford Court was lodged in November 2016 at band B and expired in November 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let.
