The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since November 2017. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
