About 17a

17a is a mid-terrace house in Whalley, Clitheroe, Clitheroe (BB7 9TD). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 639 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 59 m² this is the 7th smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–143 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (47 versus a best of 82). The latest certificate (July 2011) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused.
