In cash terms the typical PR26 9 home went from £56,500 in 1995 to £289,600 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 136%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2023; the current median sits about 24% below that. Someone who bought at the 2023 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the PR26 9 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2002 (+43.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2016 (−18.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +6.3% | +3.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.7% | −4.0% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.7% | +0.3% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.1% | −0.6% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
How many homes change hands in PR26 9
How many homes change hands
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
The register shows 12 PR26 9 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 87 sales a year before the financial crisis and 48 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
The shape of the PR26 9 market
Only 12 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PR26 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.
What tenants pay around PR26 9
For renting purposes PR26 9 sits in Chorley. The ONS average private rent there is £779 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £584 a month here against £1,301 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Chorley
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£779 a month is £9,348 a year, which against the £289,600 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.2%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.

Bedroom by bedroom: PR prices by size
What homes of each size actually sold for across the PR area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £243,000 | £325,000 (+34%) | £475,000 (+46%) | £654,500 (+38%) |
| Semi-detached | £164,975 | £189,950 (+15%) | £228,000 (+20%) | £295,000 (+29%) | £410,000 (+39%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
