It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 60 m² this is the 19th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top.
