National Statistics UPRN Lookup (May 2026) (Epoch 126)

<p>This file contains the National Statistics UPRN Lookup (NSUL) for Great Britain as at May 2026. The NSUL relates the Unique Property Reference Number (UPRN) for each GB address from AddressBase® Epoch 126 to a range of current statutory administrative, electoral, health and other statistical geographies via 'best-fit' allocation from 2021 Census output areas (National Parks and Workplace Zones are exempt from 'best-fit' and use 'exact-fit' allocations). The NSUL is produced by ONS Geography, who provide geographic support to the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and geographic services used by other organisations. The NSUL is issued every 6 weeks and is designed to complement the Ordnance Survey AddressBase® product. For further technical information about this file, please refer to the User Guide document contained within the downloadable zip file.

NFI Soil Fungi & Invertebrate Communities

Soil community data generated through eDNA metabarcoding (marker genes: ITS, 18S, COI) of soil samples collected within National Forest Inventory (NFI) woodland plots across England in 2023/24. The dataset comprises the processed sequence data and provides a list of all the species detected in each of the samples. Where a species was detected in a sample, the Read Counts (the number of DNA sequences assigned to a species) are reported. A blank cell indicates that the species was not detected in the sample. Additionally, for each species the following is included:
• The OTU DNA sequence
• The taxonomic identification: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
• IUCN Red List Threat Status (only available for OTUs named at the species level)
• Invasive status: A Yes/No status indicating whether the species is listed as invasive in the country the sample was taken from (only available for OTUs named at the species level)
• Number of samples in which the species occurs
This is one part of the data generated from the eDNA Soil Biodiversity project.  
The datasets also include a table with information related to the sample collected (i.e., sample comment - a description of the soil collected, and the unique decolation ID).  Data are georeferenced using a delocalised grid. The coordinates for the centroid of the polygon and also the total area of the polygon are included in the dataset. Further information about the delocalisation process is provided in the dataset evidence pack (Sampling Framework).
The ' NFI Soil Fungi & Invertebrate Communities’ is a project funded by the UK Government through Defra’s Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment programme (NCEA).  Users should ensure they have read the supporting documentation before viewing or making use of the data. This includes the 'NCEA Analysis Ready Data Limitations Statement' and dataset specific limitations/caveats outlined in the Sampling Framework report (see Section 18).

Irish Sea Plankton Survey - RV Clione 05/85

Between March and June of 1982 and 1985 a series of plankton surveys was 
carried out in the western Irish Sea to determine the distribution and 
abundance of the larvae of Nephrops norvegicus L. Plankton samples were 
collected at each site on a planned survey grid. In addition to Nephrops 
larvae, fish eggs and larvae were also analysed. The data described here 
consists of the numbers of Nephrops larvae and fish eggs and larvae identified 
from the main net samples collected on the survey in April 1985, along with 
associated positional and ancillary data and volumes filtered.

NFI Soil Chemistry

Soil chemistry data of soil samples collected within National Forest Inventory (NFI) woodland plots across England during the 2023/24 survey period. The dataset provides quantitative information on a range of soil chemical properties and nutrients detected in each sample. For more information on reported metrics see Advice Sheet 41: Classification of Soil Analysis results to Indices and Advice Sheet 45: Soil Carbon Check Service on the technical help pages of NRM (NRM - Cawood).
Data are georeferenced using a delocalised grid. The coordinates for the centroid of the polygon and also the total area of the polygon are included in the dataset. Further information about the delocalisation process is provided in the dataset evidence pack (Sampling Framework).
This dataset forms part of the Soil Biodiversity and Chemistry Monitoring Project within the National Forest Inventory framework.  The 'NFI Soil Chemistry’ is a project funded by the UK Government through Defra’s Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment programme (NCEA).  Users should ensure they have read the supporting documentation before viewing or making use of the data. This includes the 'NCEA Analysis Ready Data Limitations Statement' and dataset specific limitations/caveats outlined in the Sampling Framework report (see Section 18).

NFI Canopy & Subcanopy Arthropod Communities

Canopy and subcanopy arthropod community data generated through DNA metabarcoding of samples collected using Lindgren (canopy) and Malaise (subcanopy) traps deployed within National Forest Inventory (NFI) woodland plots across England in 2023/24. The dataset comprises the processed sequence data and provides a list of all the species detected in each of the samples. Where a species was detected in a sample, the Read Counts (the number of DNA sequences assigned to a species) are reported. A blank cell indicates that the species was not detected in the sample. Additionally, for each species the following is included:
• The OTU DNA sequence
• The taxonomic identification: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
• IUCN Red List Threat Status (only available for OTUs named at the species level)
• Invasive status: A Yes/No status indicating whether the species is listed as invasive in the country the sample was taken from (only available for OTUs named at the species level)
• Number of samples in which the species occurs
The datasets also include a table with information related to the sample collected (i.e., forest type and the unique delocation ID).  Data are georeferenced using a delocalised grid. The coordinates for the centroid of the polygon and also the total area of the polygon are included in the dataset. Further information about the delocalisation process is provided in the dataset evidence pack (Sampling Framework).

Monitoring canopy and subcanopy arthropod communities, as measures of woodland ecological condition, is one part of the data generated from the DNA metabarcoding techniques project.  The 'NFI Canopy & Subcanopy Arthropod Communities' is a project funded by the UK Government through Defra’s Natural Capital and Ecosystem Assessment programme (NCEA).  Users should ensure they have read the supporting documentation before viewing or making use of the data.

Brownfield Land Register 2025

The Government requires each local planning authority to maintain a register of previously developed (brownfield) land that is considered to be appropriate for housing. The Council’s current Brownfield Land Register (October 2025 update) identifies a total of 23 brownfield sites, which comprise approximately 95ha of housing land and could accommodate up to 1,866 dwellings. Site size ranges from 0.02 ha to 36.5 ha and include the former Biwaters site and part of the Avenue site.
