About 114b
114b is a mid-terrace house in Blackpool (FY1 5DY). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. At 46 m² this is the 5th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in 114b, where floor areas span 19–46 m². On EPC score it ranks last in the building (69 versus a best of 73).
