Try this http://calculators.baxiknowhow.co.uk/boiler-sizing/
Otherwise, assuming four months heating per year, I make it a 30kW boiler

Thanks Andrew, I am trying to make 28000 kWh/year work into 30 kW
I looked at the Baxi calculator and it gets a bit awkward as this house is rectangle over three floors with a large "wing" built on the side (like an extension) making it difficult to compute (for an outsider)
Thanks again
Paul

Calculate the wing seperately
My 30kw comes from...
28000kW space heating a year
Heating on for four months (120 days) = 28000/120 = 233.3kW/day
Assuming 8 hours heating a day, 233.3/8 = 29.1kW
It's a bit of a rough-and-ready way of doing it but it looks about right
