It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 763 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower.
