It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2010. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump.
