Provides files to download data as it existed for this dataset on previous dates.

Statistics are most often revised for 1 of 2 reasons:

  1. For certain statistics initial estimates are released with the expectation that these may be revised and updated as further data becomes available.
  2. Revisions may also be made when methods or systems are changed.

These types of planned revisions should not be confused with errors in released statistics, which are genuine mistakes. Such mistakes occur rarely and, when they do happen, corrections are made in a timely manner, announced and clearly explained to users in line with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics (Principle 2, Practice 7).

We have corrected an error with our coastal towns lookup, meaning an additional 11 local authorities that were not originally listed as containing coastal towns, are now listed as containing coastal towns. These are: Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, Castle Point, Dorset, East Suffolk, City of Kingston Upon Hull, Liverpool, Rochford, Somerset West and Taunton, Wealden, West Lancashire, Worthing. The proportion of coastal towns within each cluster have been updated in this article alongside our accompanying dataset. This happened because of human error. We apologise for any misunderstanding caused.
