About 15e
15e is a semi-detached house in Dudley (DY1 1JG). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929.

Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.
