    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 22, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
