About 1 Earl Street
1 Earl Street is an end-of-terrace house in Blackburn (BB1 7ND). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since March 2014.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
