I find this site even better as it will also give you a value based on earnings as well.

http://www.measuringworth.com/ppoweruk/

So, you get, with the example above, In 2008, £4350 0s 0d from 1888 is worth:

£361,000.00 using the retail price index

£2,270,000.00 using average earnings

What this tells you, dividing one by the other, we earn 6 times more now, than they did then.....!
