What this site brief can substantiate today

Each section reports its own coverage, per county. “Not yet covered” means the source dataset is not loaded for this local authority, so the brief draws no conclusion there and says where to check — it never reads as “no constraint found”.

Partial coverage

1 register record is within the point-match tolerance; a parcel boundary is needed to treat this as exact.
