About 6 Watling Street
6 Watling Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Affetside, Bury, Bury (BL8 3QS). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
