It has a recorded floor area of 218 m² (around 2347 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.
