About 8 Alderson Drive

8 Alderson Drive is a semi-detached house in Barnsley (S71 1UU). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A.

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.
