Premises inspected under the food hygiene scheme
- Source period
- 2026-10-02
Representative-location estimate at CH8 7JS, the active postcode nearest the centre point of the official settlement boundary. This is not a town-wide total and may vary elsewhere in the town.
Counts only premises the Food Standards Agency holds a location for. About a fifth of the register has no coordinates, so this is a floor rather than a complete count. It covers inspected food businesses, not every shop.

The 0 to 5 scheme applies in England and Wales. Scotland uses a different scheme with no equivalent score, so this measure does not apply there. A rating describes one inspection on one date, not the premises today.

Counts shops tagged as supermarkets only, so a large convenience store is not one and a supermarket mapped with just a brand name is missed. From OpenStreetMap, a map anyone can edit, so this is what has been MAPPED around this postcode rather than what is there. Coverage is uneven and is not surveyed: busy centres are mapped in detail and rural areas frequently are not, so a low figure can mean few mappers as easily as few amenities. Where too little of the surrounding area has been mapped for a zero to mean anything, no figure is shown at all rather than a confident none. OpenStreetMap is a live database seen here as a dated snapshot: somewhere that closed can still be on the map, and somewhere that opened last month may not be on it yet. Distance is straight-line from the middle of the postcode, not a walking route. © OpenStreetMap contributors, licensed under the Open Database Licence (ODbL).

From OpenStreetMap, a map anyone can edit, so this is what has been MAPPED around this postcode rather than what is there. Coverage is uneven and is not surveyed: busy centres are mapped in detail and rural areas frequently are not, so a low figure can mean few mappers as easily as few amenities. Where too little of the surrounding area has been mapped for a zero to mean anything, no figure is shown at all rather than a confident none. OpenStreetMap is a live database seen here as a dated snapshot: somewhere that closed can still be on the map, and somewhere that opened last month may not be on it yet. Distance is straight-line from the middle of the postcode, not a walking route. © OpenStreetMap contributors, licensed under the Open Database Licence (ODbL).

The company appointed to supply water to this postcode
- Source period
- April 2024 (Ofwat v1_5)
Representative-location estimate at CH8 7JS, the active postcode nearest the centre point of the official settlement boundary. This is not a town-wide total and may vary elsewhere in the town.
From Ofwat's digitised appointment boundaries (April 2024), which are for analysis rather than the legal record — a property near an edge can be served by the neighbouring company. Where a small new appointment (a NAV) covers a development, that company is named instead of the regional one. New appointments are granted monthly, so a recent development may still show its regional company. Your sewerage provider may be a different company.

Eleven of the sixteen water companies in England and Wales also provide sewerage; the other five supply water only. So this is frequently a different company from the water supplier, and it is looked up against separate Ofwat boundaries rather than inferred. Analysis boundaries, not the legal record.

The named source result is Dŵr Cymru had let leakage rise 15.9% against its 2019-20 baseline by 2023-24. Ofwat's target for that year was a reduction of 10.3%, which the company missed. In absolute terms it lost 262 megalitres a day. This is the whole company's network across its entire supply area, not the pipes in this postcode..
A figure for the whole company's network across its entire supply area, not for the pipes in this postcode. It is a percentage change from each company's own 2019-20 baseline rather than an absolute rate, so it says how much a company improved and not how leaky it is; a company that started well has less room to improve. Where leakage rose, the published figure is negative and this is stated in words. Ofwat regulate England and Wales; Scotland has a different regulator and no comparable figure.

Representative-location estimate at CH8 7JS, the active postcode nearest the centre point of the official settlement boundary. This is not a town-wide total and may vary elsewhere in the town. The named source result is Dŵr Cymru: the average property lost 23.3 minutes of supply in 2023-24. That is 14th best of the 16 companies reporting it. Ofwat's target for that year was 5.4 minutes, which the company missed. This describes the whole company across its entire supply area, not this postcode..
An average across every property the company supplies, over a whole year. Most properties lose no supply at all and a few lose it for many hours, so this is not the time any particular household went without water. Only interruptions of three hours or more count towards Ofwat's measure. The company figure is comparable with other companies because Ofwat define it centrally.

The named source result is Dŵr Cymru: 1.35 homes flooded internally by sewage per 10,000 sewer connections in 2023-24. That is 3rd best of the 11 companies reporting it. Ofwat's target for that year was 1.4 per 10,000 connections, which the company met. This describes the whole company across its entire supply area, not this postcode..
A rate for the whole sewerage company, not a count of flooding near this postcode. It counts sewage entering buildings, which is the most serious category; external flooding of gardens and driveways is a separate and much larger figure that is not shown here. Your sewerage company is often not your water company — five of the sixteen appointed companies supply water only.

C-MeX combines a survey of randomly sampled customers with a survey of customers who recently contacted the company.

Representative-location estimate at CH8 7JS, the active postcode nearest the centre point of the official settlement boundary. This is not a town-wide total and may vary elsewhere in the town. The named source result is Dŵr Cymru: met 50% of the performance commitments it agreed with Ofwat for 2020-25 in 2023-24. That is 12th best of the 16 companies reporting it. This describes the whole company across its entire supply area, not this postcode..
Each company agreed its own set of performance commitments with Ofwat at its own levels, so this measures delivery against that company's own promises and is only loosely comparable between companies — a company with easier commitments can achieve more of them. The two customer-experience measures are excluded from the count. Ofwat published a per-commitment met/not-met flag for 2020-21 only, which is why this is a percentage rather than a list.
