How David Street, Bacup prices moved
The chart tracks the median David Street, Bacup house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2000 to 2006. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 4 | £36,500 | £66,492 |
The highest yearly median on record for David Street, Bacup is £75,000 in 2006; the lowest is £20,000 in 2000. Across the full 7-year record the cash median has moved from £20,000 to £75,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £40,000, so the real change over the whole record is +233.8% — about +22.25% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +275.0% in cash against +233.8% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Section 06
Ownership and new build in David Street, Bacup
58 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 58 | 100.0% | £50,500 |
| Freehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
A further 6 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How David Street, Bacup compares

Within Bacup the street ranks 229 of 297 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £79,950 (-36.8%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £879 per square metre, across 10 of the 58 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
