The chart tracks the median Mill Road, Lewes house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2000 to 2018. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

The highest yearly median on record for Mill Road, Lewes is £382,475 in 2018; the lowest is £100,000 in 2000. Across the full 19-year record the cash median has moved from £100,000 to £382,475.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £200,000, so the real change over the whole record is +154.9% — about +5.33% 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: +51.2% in cash against +13.2% 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.

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 Mill Road, Lewes values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

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

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 94 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.

A further 2 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 Lewes, 42.2% of 49,257 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.0% 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 Lewes at £1,323 a month as of Jun 2026 — £917 for a one-bedroom home and £1,495 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £283,462 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.60% 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.

No street-level crime was published for BN8 in Jun 2026. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

The 2021 census counted 99,905 residents in Lewes across 43,688 households. 72.1% of those households own their home and 27.8% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

11 state and independent schools have a BN8 postcode: 9 primary, 2 secondary. 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. Mill Road, Lewes sits above that national figure — +80.0%.

Within Lewes the street ranks 272 of 535 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £267,500 (+6.0%).

Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £4,088 per square metre, across 13 of the 94 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 £60,000 to £994,450. 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.

Mill Road, Lewes sits in Lewes, in the South East.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Lewes at 9.7 times median local earnings of £39,798 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.
