There are too few years of sales in L39 9 to plot a trend line. The figures below are drawn from the whole record rather than a yearly series.

Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

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 L39 9 values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. L39 9 is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

7 of the sales on record are leasehold and 33 freehold — 17.5% 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.

The median leasehold sale is £177,000 and the median freehold sale £280,000 — a gap of +58.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.

A further 7 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.

Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across West Lancashire, 44.5% of 53,234 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.1% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in West Lancashire at £802 a month as of Jun 2026 — £586 for a one-bedroom home and £841 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £247,750 here, that rent is a gross yield of 3.88% 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 L39, 92 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 29 violent, 2 burglary, 5 vehicle-related and 21 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.8 times quieter.

Against the 117,429 residents the 2021 census counted in West Lancashire, that is 0.78 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.

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.

The 2021 census counted 117,429 residents in West Lancashire across 48,534 households. 71.6% of those households own their home and 28.2% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

13 state and independent schools have a L39 postcode: 10 primary, 2 secondary, 1 nursery. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. L39 9 sits above that national figure — +57.3%.

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.

The full range on record runs from £39,000 to £620,000. 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.

L39 9 sits in West Lancashire, in the North West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in West Lancashire at 7.1 times median local earnings of £33,926 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.
