The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
