HARBOROUGH HILL ROAD, S71 1BB House Prices & Local Information

S71 1BB is an up-and-coming urban area on Harborough Hill Road, 0.4km from Town End in Barnsley. Administratively it sits within Central ward and the Barnsley Central constituency.

This is a strong family neighbourhood — a transitional terrace area — improving but still facing economic pressures. The daytime character shifts — low density wholesale and retail in mostly white areas, often on urban fringe or close to transport nodes. The 40 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 57% of properties are owner-occupied — a strong indicator of neighbourhood stability and long-term community investment.

Safety: Crime rates are high (211 per 1,000 residents) — commercial zones and transport hubs in the vicinity contribute to these figures. Property: Average house prices are around £186k, up 91.1% year-on-year. The Index of Multiple Deprivation places this area in the most deprived 20% nationally — this often means more affordable prices and active local authority investment, but also fewer amenities and higher benefit dependency.
