9 Priory Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO1 2PY). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1446 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55).
