About 58a
58a is a mid-terrace house in Wem, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY4 5DW). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since September 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
