About 1a
1a is an end-of-terrace house in Huddersfield (HD1 5HU). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 88 m² this is the 10th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–170 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
