It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1311 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump.
