* We don't rank property costs in Scotland as their property prices are not held by HM Land Registry.
Transactions are only included where the property has been recorded with HM Land Registry and we know the total internal floor area of the property (so we can calculate the cost per square foot).
We rank each area in the UK, with the most expensive area being ranked 1 (so a rank of 5 would mean that it is the 5th most expensive area in all of England, Wales and Nothern Ireland). We exclude an area from being ranked if it doesn't have sufficient data available (i.e. if there are very few sales in the area).
** This data is based on 148 property transactions recorded with HM Land Registry over the previous 12 months in this area and matched against the total internal floor area for each specific property.
