About 5 Church Lane
5 Church Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Pampisford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 3ET). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a G (score 19), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (October 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
