Year by year: the median as it was recorded, and the same figure brought into today's money with ONS CPIH, which is where "did homes get dearer" actually gets answered. Hover shows each year; the legend isolates a series.

In cash terms the typical PR6 8 home went from £59,000 in 1995 to £236,800 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 85%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2007; the current median sits about 31% 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 PR6 8 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 (+27.5% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−18.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.

Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.

Over the last twelve months of data, 30 sales completed in PR6 8. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 140 sales a year before the financial crisis and 81 a year over the last five. 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 tenants pay around PR6 8

PR6 8 falls under Chorley, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £779 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £584 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,301, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.

Set against the £236,800 median sold price, £779 a month is £9,348 a year, a gross yield of 3.9%: 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.

What kind of market PR6 8 is

Only 30 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes PR6 8 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.

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.
