It has a recorded floor area of 212 m² (around 2282 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E.

Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).
