Deprivation (IMD)

Area profile for WA4

Across the 12 sampled WA4 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 3 to decile 10, with a median of decile 9 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.

WA4 4JT, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 9 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.

Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so WA4 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in WA4 that have recorded sales and 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home.

What it costs to run a home in WA4, band by band

Cheshire West and Chester's council tax for 2026-27 set against the WA4 median sold price of £287,500 across 250 recorded sales — the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.

The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the WA4 median sold price — a comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.

Questions, answered

The WA4 report: your questions

What is the average house price in WA4?
The median sold price in WA4, Cheshire West and Chester was £287,500 across 250 recorded sales between 3 Mar 2026 and 27 Jul 2026. Most sales fell between £137,900 and £575,500. That is the median of real HM Land Registry transactions, not an estimate or a valuation.
How much is council tax in WA4?
WA4 is billed by Cheshire West and Chester, whose Band D charge for 2026-27 is £2,517 a year. Every band from A to H is listed on this page. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and there is no free per-address dataset for it, so we never guess an individual home's band — look it up on GOV.UK and read your row.
Which schools are near WA4?
The Department for Education's register lists 8 open schools within 3 km of the WA4 district centre, the nearest being Bridgewater High School (last Ofsted grade: Good). These are nearest by straight-line distance from the district centroid — they are not catchment or admission areas, which councils set individually and do not publish centrally.
Is WA4 a deprived area?
On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, the 12 WA4 postcodes we sampled run from decile 3 to decile 10, with a median of decile 9 of 10 — where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. Deprivation is published for small areas, not postcode districts, so a district like WA4 usually spans several. It is area context, never a judgement on an individual home.
Have there been planning applications near WA4?
The last check of the local planning authority register found 710 applications within 500 m of the WA4 district centre; the most recent are listed on this page with their reference, description and status as the authority published them. For an up-to-the-minute search, use the planning tool with your full postcode.
Can I see what an individual address in WA4 sold for?
Yes — this page lists the 24 most recently sold doors of the 244 distinct addresses in the records we hold for WA4, each with its price and date. Addresses come from recorded sales since 1995, so a home that has never been sold does not appear; and we link an address to its own property page only where the match is certain, never by guessing.
How up to date are the WA4 sold prices?
Sold prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, covering sales up to 31 July 2026. The store is rebuilt monthly. New sales can take several weeks to appear in the official register after completion, so the very latest transactions may not show yet.
Does WA4 cover my exact street?
WA4 is the outward half of the postcode and covers the whole district, so the district-wide figures on this page are medians and ranges — not a valuation of any single property. The address list gives you the door-level picture, and the free checks take a full postcode.
