It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1056 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D.

The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
