About 8 New Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.
