"From centre" is the straight-line distance from the mean position of all practising offices in the district. Rows without a link are firms whose SRA record is too sparse for a page of their own. "Also reported" shows probate, wills and family where the firm reported them. The "Prices published" badge means we read a conveyancing price page on that firm's own website and confirmed what it covers; a firm without one may still publish prices we did not find. Hover or tap a row to find that office on the map.

Before you instruct a firm
- Check the firm on the SRA register (each firm page links to its entry) and confirm the SRA number on the firm's website matches.
- Read the published price page: it must show the total or a range, hourly rates or fixed fees, disbursements, VAT and timescales. See how to compare conveyancing quotes.
- A conveyancer does not need to be local; compare at least three written quotes, including an online conveyancer.
