About The Plough
The Plough is a detached house in Navestock, Romford, Romford (RM4 1HD). It has a recorded floor area of 275 m² (around 2960 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (August 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
