At 89 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Bytham Bank (38–89 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (44 versus a best of 69). The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve.
