About 8 Ashland Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Ashland Avenue is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wigan (WN1 2DP). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.

The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Ashland Avenue is modelled from its 137 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WN1 2DP. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 8 Ashland Avenue. 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 Ashland Avenue was lodged in May 2015 at band E and expired in May 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Ashland Avenue. 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 8 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WN1 2DP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Ashland Avenue is in council tax band B. 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.
