Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Shepherd Street, Bacup values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Shepherd Street, Bacup is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 48 | 94.1% | £42,500 | £6,000 – £125,000 |
| Semi-detached | 3 | 5.9% | £21,000 | £10,750 – £80,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Shepherd Street, Bacup
51 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 51 | 100.0% | £42,500 |
| Freehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
A further 4 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 Shepherd Street, Bacup compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Shepherd Street, Bacup sits below that national figure — -73.0%.
Within Bacup the street ranks 258 of 297 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £79,950 (-46.8%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £735 per square metre, across 22 of the 51 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £6,000 to £125,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Shepherd Street, Bacup?

How many homes have sold in Shepherd Street, Bacup?
51 sales are on record for Shepherd Street, Bacup, the most recent completing on 8 Apr 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Shepherd Street, Bacup house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £65,500, set in 2020. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Shepherd Street, Bacup?

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 8 Apr 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
