Food and drink on the high street

Registered premisesCount
Restaurants and cafés (19.4 per 10,000 residents)1
Pubs, bars and nightclubs (19.4 per 10,000 residents)1

Counts are registered food premises in the Corpusty built-up area (515 residents at the 2021 census), from the FSA food hygiene register, extracted 17 August 2026. The boundary is drawn from where the buildings are, so these figures cover the town itself rather than the wider council area, and no total is shown because the register also lists premises nobody would call a venue: school kitchens, care homes, warehouses.

Shops and services

PremisesCount
Shops (all retail) (38.8 per 10,000 residents)2

Shops, cafés, salons, banks, post offices and arcades are rateable premises by use on the VOA 2023 rating list — the shops figure is all general retail, charity shops included. Gambling premises come from the Gambling Commission's licensing register, which lists 6,251 betting shops nationally against the rating list's 3,838: many betting shops are rated as ordinary shops, so the licensing register is the truer count and the one used here. Categories the rating list counts badly are deliberately absent rather than wrong: petrol stations disappear into supermarket ratings, vets and museums run far under their professional registers, and pools and nurseries mostly rate inside other premises. Same built-up-area boundary as the download table on this page.

Schools

Open establishmentsCount
Primary schools1

The 2021 census counted 31 children aged 5 to 9 in the town: one state primary school for every 31 of them.

Open schools registered in the Corpusty built-up area, from the Department for Education's Get Information about Schools register, extracted 24 August 2026. Each school counts once: an independent special school appears under special schools, and the phase rows are state schools. The children-per-school figure pairs a 2021 census count with today's register, so growth or decline since the census is not in it. No inspection grades are shown because Ofsted stopped issuing single-word overall judgements in 2024 and the register no longer carries them; current inspection reports are on Ofsted's own site. England only: the register lists Welsh schools without phase detail.

Broadband

Availability% of homes
Gigabit-capable (1,000 Mbit/s+)12.2%
Superfast (30 Mbit/s+)100.0%

Share of the 263 residential premises in this built-up area that the fixed network can serve at each speed, from Ofcom's Connected Nations coverage data (network state July 2025). Availability is what the line to a home can deliver if ordered, not what households actually subscribe to, and a full-fibre street where everyone bought the cheapest package shows 100% here.
