It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2013.
