It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E.

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on wood logs.
