It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since October 2012. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 3-band jump.
