Schools & Ofsted
No schools indexed yet for this postcode sector. The official sources below cover every UK postcode.
Catchments aren't published nationally; many schools use distance-from-school as the deciding factor. The links above give you the official data — only the local authority can confirm a specific year's catchment boundary.

Leasehold — confirm years remaining
The listing flags this as leasehold but we couldn’t pull a confident remaining-years number. Ask the agent before bidding — anything under 80 years is a red flag for most lenders.
Always verify lease term + ground rent in the official LPE1 / management pack before exchange.
