It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A.

Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
