Wait what, that is clearly a Victorian house, it's obviously going to be there pre-1911 or did I miss something?
My reasoning isn't as advanced as BQ's but I looked at it and would have guessed 1850-70.

Quite a lot of Edwardian houses were built in a style virtually identical to Victorian builds. Ours looks Victorian (and was built in a kind of extension of Victorian affordable housing developments) but is actually 1915. I suspect that a lot of housing developments of the early 20th century basically just took Victorian designs and construction methods (you can see the bricks in my house which were fired in a field shoe instead of a kiln) and replicated them. It took a while for Bauhaus design to filter into UK worker housing.

Search for the street in the 1911 census, if you cannot find it then you are post 1911.

Follow that with some style features from the valuation office and the sash windows probably put you into the early 1920s.

I'd probably put 1924 down or ask an owner occupier neighbour if they know.
