The small numbers after figure labels refer to this key. They show how a figure was made, not how accurate it is. Open any figure to see its source, date and important limits.
Mapped Nitrate Vulnerable Zone records are temporarily unavailable for Royston (North Hertfordshire). This does not establish whether any designation intersects the settlement outline or indicate water quality.
Original published categories whose polygons intersect the official Royston (North Hertfordshire) settlement outline, including boundary contact.
These are original category codes and definitions from the retained Source Protection Zones (Merged) dataset whose polygons intersect this place’s official mapped settlement outline, including boundary-only contact. This is not a whole-town or property designation, a finding about a drinking-water supply, or evidence of contamination, water quality or risk. These definitions do not identify individual supplies. Dataset dates do not establish current legal status. Absence of a listed category does not establish that land or a property is outside a zone. England only; separate Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish regimes are not represented. Precautionary groundwater abstraction and land-use designation at a postcode centroid, not an address-level finding or drinking-water quality result. Outside a mapped zone does not establish clean or unprotected groundwater. Welsh zones and the separate Scottish and Northern Irish regimes are not represented.
Zone 1 — inner protection zone, within a 50-day groundwater travel time of the abstraction
Zone 2 — outer protection zone, within a 400-day groundwater travel time of the abstraction
Zone 3 — total catchment, the whole area of ground needed to support the abstraction

Broadband and mobile connectivity
Ofcom publishes these fixed-broadband, full-fibre take-up and mobile coverage profiles for named local and unitary authorities, rather than for town boundaries. They are shown as wider council-area context for Royston (North Hertfordshire); availability figures are provider predictions, not measurements at every address.
These highlights come from complete all-premises and residential broadband profiles, both published full-fibre take-up measures, the complete 2G, 3G, 4G, voice, 5G and standalone-5G network-count profiles, and the premises and grid-pixel counts used as the mobile basis. View every published broadband, full-fibre and mobile value.
