It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
