How to calculate inflation rate for £1, 1910 to 1911

Our calculations use the following inflation rate formula to calculate the change in value between 1910 and 1911:

CPI in 1911 CPI in 1910
×
1910 GBP value
=
1911 GBP value

Then plug in historical CPI values. The U.K. CPI was 9.6 in the year 1910 and 9.6 in 1911:

Data source & citation

Raw data for these calculations comes from the composite price index published by the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS). A composite index is created by combining price data from several different published sources, both official and unofficial. The Consumer Price Index, normally used to compute inflation, has only been tracked since 1988. All inflation calculations after 1988 use the Office for National Statistics' Consumer Price Index, except for the current year, which is based on The Bank of England's forecast.
