About 1 Pound Meadow
1 Pound Meadow is a four-bedroom detached house in Fornham All Saints, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 6JL). It has a recorded floor area of 164 m² (around 1767 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
