About 9 Duckmill Crescent

It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1387 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
