About 15 Church Street
15 Church Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in South Elmsall, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 2JE). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in March 2018 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a balcony and outbuildings.
