About 8a
8a is a mid-terrace house in London (SE1 1DB). It has a recorded floor area of 34 m² (around 365 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
