About Yr Hen Aelwyd
Yr Hen Aelwyd is a semi-detached house in Aberystwyth (SY23 1EN). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band D. At 61 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 9 units on EPC record in Yr Hen Aelwyd, where floor areas span 60–69 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (February 2021) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.
