Variation across complete unique intersecting source areas; this is not a recomputed page-level statistic.

The number of people usually resident in this neighbourhood. Census day was 21 March 2021, during coronavirus restrictions: students were largely counted at a parental address rather than a term-time one, and workplace populations were displaced. The census is taken once a decade, so this is now several years old. It describes the LSOA around this postcode — a neighbourhood of roughly 1,500 people — and not this address. Small counts are deliberately adjusted to protect confidentiality, so categories need not sum exactly to their totals and a difference of a person or two is noise. England and Wales only: Scotland ran its own census in 2022, published separately by National Records of Scotland.

A household is one person living alone or a group sharing accommodation and facilities. It is not the number of dwellings. Census day was 21 March 2021, during coronavirus restrictions. This describes the LSOA around the postcode, not a household or address. ONS applies statistical disclosure control, so small category counts are perturbed and components may differ slightly from the published total.

Equivalised means adjusted for household size and composition on the modified-OECD scale, so a couple and a family of five can be compared. Do not read it as the cash a household receives. A modelled estimate for the financial year ending March 2023, not a measurement: ONS combine the Family Resources Survey with census and administrative data, and the method tends to pull estimates towards the average. Every figure carries a wide confidence interval — the true value could plausibly sit anywhere in it, so a difference between neighbouring areas may not be real. It is a mean, and income is skewed, so it sits above the typical household. The area is an MSOA of 2,000 to 6,000 households, several neighbourhoods rather than one street.

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.

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.

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.

It is not an annual average concentration, and Defra publish no such figure for ozone.

Small category cells and a complementary cell are suppressed to prevent differencing.

This is the estimated chance that a home in this 1 km square exceeds the 200 Bq/m³ radon Action Level. It is NOT a measurement of radon at this address, and no map can tell you what any individual property contains — only a test in the property itself can, over three to six months. The mapping is also deliberately precautionary: BGS class each square by the HIGHEST radon potential found anywhere within it, so most homes in a square have a lower potential than the band shown. It does not apply to basements, cellars or underground rooms at all, which should be treated as higher risk wherever they are. For a definitive assessment of a specific address, UKHSA's UKradon service sells an address report.

UKHSA define a radon Affected Area as one where at least one home in a hundred is expected to exceed the Action Level. This applies that definition to the indicative 1 km band, so it inherits the same precaution: the square is classed by its worst point, and most homes inside an Affected Area are not above the Action Level. Being inside one is a reason to test, not a finding about this property.
