West Witton Row Farm is a detached house in Witton Le Wear, Bishop Auckland, Bishop Auckland (DL14 0DB). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a G (score 16), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since March 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
