It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
