It has a recorded floor area of 208 m² (around 2239 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump.
