It has a recorded floor area of 24 m² (around 258 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A.

The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 71). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.
