Not sure of your band?
We cannot look up individual homes. The Valuation Office Agency checker on GOV.UK gives the band for any address in Garthorpe.
Garthorpe is small: its tax base is 34 Band D-equivalent homes, so a modest change in the precept moves the charge per home a lot. It is left out of the parish rankings.
Melton also charges special expenses in part of its area (£654,705 in all, £31.07 per Band D home on average across the council). The parish and no-parish figures here leave them out, because the statistics do not say which areas pay them, so where they apply the bill is higher. The council's own bill shows them.
