In cash terms the typical PR26 home went from £50,000 in 1995 to £263,800 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 149%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not just more expensive on paper. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 8% below that. Someone who bought at the 2007 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.

Year-on-year change in the PR26 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 (+34.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−11.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.

PR26 recorded 240 sales in the last twelve months of data. Turnover has held fairly steady across the cycle: about 296 sales a year recently, against 309 a year before 2008. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.

What homes rent for around PR26

PR26 falls under South Ribble, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £793 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £553 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,251, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Set against the £263,800 median sold price, £793 a month is £9,516 a year, a gross yield of 3.6%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

Will PR26 prices rise from here?

Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is up 16% over five years in cash but down 6% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.

Ladders and snakes: five-year risers and fallers

PR26 ranks 2 of 11 in the PR area on five-year growth. The gap between the top and bottom of this chart is the difference between buying well and buying badly in the same city.
