How Pollards Fields, Knottingley prices moved
The chart tracks the median Pollards Fields, Knottingley house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2025. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £35,750 | £79,382 |
| 2000s | 6 | £64,000 | £116,589 |
| 2010s | 4 | £87,000 | £122,670 |
| 2020s | 4 | £120,000 | £122,609 |
The highest yearly median on record for Pollards Fields, Knottingley is £165,000 in 2024; the lowest is £34,000 in 1998. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £35,750 to £120,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £77,550, so the real change over the whole record is +58.1% — about +1.59% 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: +37.9% in cash against 0.0% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Pollards Fields, Knottingley 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 108 | 53.7% | £87,000 | £20,000 – £185,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Pollards Fields, Knottingley
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 201 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 | 201 | 100.0% | £82,000 |
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.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in North Yorkshire at £838 a month as of Jun 2026 — £586 for a one-bedroom home and £929 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £82,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 12.26% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of WF11, 194 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 73 violent, 8 burglary, 13 vehicle-related and 15 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.2 times busier.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
