It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2022) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since August 2009.
