About 8 Camp Mount
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Camp Mount is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 4BY). It has a recorded floor area of 289 m² (around 3111 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a basement. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 289 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2002–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £567,000 sits 57.5% above the 2014 sale of £360,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 21.2% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in September 2014.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Camp Mount is modelled from its 289 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF8 4BY. 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 8 Camp Mount. 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 8 Camp Mount was lodged in July 2013 at band E and expired in July 2023, 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 8 Camp Mount. 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF8 4BY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Camp Mount is in council tax band D. 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.
