Are new homes being built in Ashbourne?

13 of the 211 postcodes now in use in Ashbourne came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 1 of the 134 homes sold in Ashbourne were newly built (Under 1%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the DE6 district, 10%.

A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.
