The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Barnsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SHORT WOOD CLOSE sales from September 2010 and February 2012 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the September 2010 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI.
