  2. 2Who says so? The published source sits right beside the number.
  3. 3How fresh? The date it was published or last refreshed.

Scotland records qualifications on the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework, which is a different ladder from the one used in England and Wales. "No qualifications" is the most nearly comparable category of the set, but it is not an identical question.

223 / 223

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.

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.

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.

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

Modelled annual average for the 1 km grid square containing this postcode — an estimate from Defra's national air-quality model, not a measurement taken here. It is a BACKGROUND concentration: the roadside increment is deliberately excluded, so streets beside busy roads inside this square are worse than this figure. Model methodology changes between years, so year-on-year comparisons are indicative.

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

Defra's published ozone metric: the modelled number of days on which the daily maximum running 8-hour concentration exceeds 120 µg/m³. It is not an annual average concentration, and Defra publish no such figure for ozone. Modelled for the 1 km square containing this postcode, not measured here, and a background estimate that excludes the roadside increment.

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.
