It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 804 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2009); the latest reading is one band lower.
