Things You Should Know
Transport score 20/100. Daily tasks likely require a car. Limited public transport options within walking distance.
Low walkability (25) and transport (20) narrow the pool of potential renters. Consider whether the yield justifies the risk.
Daily access score 16/100. Basic amenities like shops, GPs and post offices are not within easy walking distance.
Only 1 transaction recorded. The £415,000 median is not statistically reliable and may reflect unusual sales.
Median price £415,000 based on only 1 transactions. This may not reflect typical local housing — a few high-value sales can skew the median significantly.
