It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
