This website provides interactive mapping of outstanding residential
mortgage lending by postcode sector across Great Britain, as published
by individual banks, via the Council of Mortgage Lenders. This first
iteration of the website - published in January 2014 - uses the most
recent bank lending data, which covers the period up to the end of June
2013. I hope to update the website with future data releases, if I have
the time. The map is coloured so that there are roughly the same number
of areas in each category displayed in the key to the right. It's
important to remember that this data release covers only seven major
lenders and about three quarters of the mortgage market - it is not the
full story but it does give us interesting insights that were previously
not possible. The release did not include mortgage lending data for
Northern Ireland, so that's why it's not included here. I've included a
large interactive map on the home page and if you click below that you
can see a full screen map. I've also added in some tabs which show
postcode sectors in and around London, Glasgow, Manchester and Cardiff
but if you want to find somewhere else you can easily pan and zoom to it
via the big map.
