The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE SMOCK TOWER MILL sales between October 2006 and May 2019 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the May 2011 sale was for 106% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 106% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it falls to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.
