1 Bentinck Square is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Lincoln (LN2 5EA). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since December 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
