How Bakers Oak, Ross-on-wye prices moved
The chart tracks the median Bakers Oak, Ross-on-wye house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1999 to 2001. 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 | 1 | £52,500 | £116,575 |
| 2000s | 2 | £60,000 | £109,302 |
The highest yearly median on record for Bakers Oak, Ross-on-wye is £65,500 in 2001; the lowest is £52,500 in 1999. Across the full 3-year record the cash median has moved from £52,500 to £65,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £106,973, so the real change over the whole record is +20.1% — about +9.58% 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.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Bakers Oak, Ross-on-wye 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 43 | 65.2% | £92,000 | £42,500 – £187,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Bakers Oak, Ross-on-wye
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 66 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 | 66 | 100.0% | £102,000 |
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 Forest of Dean, 38.6% of 39,729 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 10.3% 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 Forest of Dean at £824 a month as of Jun 2026 — £591 for a one-bedroom home and £954 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £102,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 9.69% 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 HR9, 72 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 25 violent, 2 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 12 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 2.3 times quieter.
Against the 87,004 residents the 2021 census counted in Forest of Dean, that is 0.83 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.
