What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Town Head, Barnard Castle is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Town Head, Barnard Castle
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 50 freehold — 0.0% 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 | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 50 | 100.0% | £148,050 |
A further 1 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 Town Head, Barnard Castle compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Town Head, Barnard Castle sits below that national figure — -6.0%.
Within Barnard Castle the street ranks 88 of 195 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £142,000 (+4.3%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £1,744 per square metre, across 3 of the 50 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 £19,500 to £945,000. 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.
