What a home of this era typically means
Cavity walls begin to appear, but many of this era are unfilled — worth checking whether they’ve been insulated.
Foundations are deeper than Victorian but still shallow by modern standards; clay-heave subsidence is the classic risk.
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.
