About 11 Thornley Lane

11 Thornley Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Grotton, Oldham, Oldham (OL4 5RH). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since August 2014.
