Gwen Court is a mid-terrace house in Stourbridge (DY8 1AT). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 59 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Gwen Court (35–59 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
