It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
