About 8 Dover Street
8 Dover Street is a mid-terrace house in Rochdale (OL16 2SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.
