8 Church Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Kempsey, Worcester, Worcester (WR5 3JG). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
