How calculated

Sum of complete unique source areas

Source areas

222 / 222

Counts companies whose REGISTERED OFFICE is this postcode. A registered office is not a place of business: accountants and company-formation agents register thousands of companies at a single address, so a large number here usually means one agent rather than a business district. Sole traders and ordinary partnerships are not on the register at all, so this undercounts businesses as most people use the word. Only companies with an active status on the monthly snapshot are counted; dissolved and liquidating companies are excluded. No address, company name or officer detail is stored or shown.

Sum of complete unique source areas

Source areas

222 / 222

Of the active companies registered at this postcode, how many were incorporated in the twelve months before the snapshot. Company formation is cheap and common, and a new company is not a new business or a new job -- many never trade. Where a formation agent uses this postcode, this number counts the agent's throughput rather than local activity. No company or address detail is stored or shown.

123

Active companies across the whole postcode district

Source period

2026-10

Active companies registered anywhere in this postcode district, which covers a much wider area than the postcode itself. Registered offices are not trading premises, and a single formation agent in the district can dominate the total. Sole traders are not on the register.

Professional, scientific and technical

The largest SIC section among companies registered in this district

Source period

2026-10

The largest single category among companies registered in this postcode district, from the SIC code each company declares for itself. Declared codes are self-reported, frequently generic and rarely updated. Companies that declare themselves dormant or non-trading, and those that declare nothing at all, are shown as such rather than folded into a real industry -- in some districts they are the largest category, which is itself the clearest evidence that these are registered offices rather than workplaces. Published only for districts with enough companies that no individual one can be inferred.

The most common legal forms on the register here

Source period

2026-10

The most common legal forms among companies registered in this postcode district -- private limited companies, limited liability partnerships and so on. Almost everywhere is dominated by private limited companies, so the interest is in what sits behind them. Published only for districts with enough companies that no individual one can be inferred, and never at postcode level.

Modelled from satellite observations averaged over 2005-2023 for an unshaded surface at the best angle, at a point in this postcode sector. It is a property of the location and the weather, not of any building: roof pitch, direction, and shading from trees and neighbouring buildings all change what reaches an actual panel, and none of them is known here.

A modelled figure for a 4 kWp roof-mounted array facing the best direction at the best angle with nothing shading it, assuming 14% system losses. It is what this LOCATION could support, not a prediction for any particular house. A north-facing roof yields around 40% of a south-facing one at the same address, and shading from a single tree can cost more than moving hundreds of miles north.

The tilt that would collect the most energy over a year at this latitude. A real installation follows the roof it is fixed to, and a fixed angle a few degrees away from optimum costs very little. Source: PVGIS © European Communities, 2001-2026.
