Ofcom figures for every home in this postcode — about fifteen addresses — not a measurement of this one. They say what can be ordered here, not the speed you would get: that depends on the package you buy. Ofcom Connected Nations, July 2024. About this data

Commute by train

Train only, station to station, at the weekday morning peak — getting to the station is not included, because we don't know whether you'd walk, drive or take a bus. The distance to the platform is above so you can judge that yourself.
