What a home of this era typically means
  • Almost certainly solid (single-leaf) brick walls — no cavity, so harder and costlier to insulate than modern cavity walls.
  • Shallow foundations by today’s standards; on clay soils, watch for historic movement and subsidence.
  • Typically suspended timber ground floors and original single-glazed sash windows unless upgraded.
  • Built with breathable lime mortar and plaster — modern cement renders or gypsum can trap damp if applied over them.

HM Land Registry Price Paid Data; sales before 1995 are not in the public dataset. Rows marked non-standard are "additional price paid" entries (repossessions, bulk purchases, right-to-buy) — listed for completeness, excluded from the change figures.
