About 44a

44a is a mid-terrace house in Wem, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY4 5DG). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
