How Nora Street, Nelson prices moved

The chart tracks the median Nora Street, Nelson house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2022. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.

Median of the yearly medians in each decade.

The highest yearly median on record for Nora Street, Nelson is £114,000 in 2007; the lowest is £32,500 in 1999. Across the full 27-year record the cash median has moved from £35,000 to £110,000.

In 2026 money that first median is worth £75,923, so the real change over the whole record is +67.9% — about +2.01% 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: -3.5% in cash against -35.7% 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.

Homes that sold twice

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 Nora Street, Nelson values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Ownership and new build in Nora Street, Nelson

144 of the sales on record are leasehold and 0 freehold — 100.0% 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 8 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 Pendle at £658 a month as of Jun 2026 — £488 for a one-bedroom home and £726 for three bedrooms.

Against the median sale of £89,875 here, that rent is a gross yield of 8.79% 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 BB9, 344 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 160 violent, 7 burglary, 12 vehicle-related and 48 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.1 times busier.

Against the 95,757 residents the 2021 census counted in Pendle, that is 3.59 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.

Section 08

The neighbourhood around Nora Street, Nelson

The 2021 census counted 95,757 residents in Pendle across 38,066 households. 65.2% of those households own their home and 34.8% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.

24 state and independent schools have a BB9 postcode: 17 primary, 4 nursery, 2 secondary, 1 16 plus. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Nora Street, Nelson compares

The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Nora Street, Nelson sits below that national figure — -42.9%.

Within Nelson the street ranks 216 of 582 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £55,000 (+63.4%).

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 £21,000 to £180,000. 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.

Nora Street, Nelson sits in Pendle, in the North West.

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Pendle at 4.5 times median local earnings of £30,981 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.

Quick answers

Common questions about this data

What is the average house price in Nora Street, Nelson?

The median price paid in Nora Street, Nelson across every sale on the register is £89,875. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.

How many homes have sold in Nora Street, Nelson?

144 sales are on record for Nora Street, Nelson, the most recent completing on 26 Mar 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

Have Nora Street, Nelson house prices actually risen?

In cash, the median rose -3.5% between 2007 and 2022. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -35.7%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.

When were Nora Street, Nelson house prices at their highest?

The highest yearly median on record is £114,000, set in 2007. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

What is the price per square metre in Nora Street, Nelson?

No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

How current is this data?

The latest sale shown here completed on 26 Mar 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
