Overview

About 4 Bank Cottages

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

4 Bank Cottages is a semi-detached house in Dorrington, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY5 7JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
