How Sheet Road, Ludlow prices moved

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Sheet Road, Ludlow is £167,500 in 2003; the lowest is £71,500 in 1995. Across the full 9-year record the cash median has moved from £71,500 to £167,500.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £158,764, so the real change over the whole record is +99.4% — about +9.01% 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: +134.3% in cash against +99.4% 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. Sheet Road, Ludlow is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Sheet Road, Ludlow

0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 71 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.

CategorySalesShareMedian paid
Leasehold00.0%

New build11.4%£100,000
Existing home7098.6%£176,000
Shares are of the sales used on this page.

New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -43.2%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.

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.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of SY8, 49 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 20 violent, 1 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 10 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.4 times quieter.

Against the 187,034 residents the 2021 census counted in Herefordshire, County of, that is 0.26 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.
