Source project V9-SOMERSET-HORSEY: Somerset Data Centre / Horsey Level. The retained V9-SOMERSET-HORSEY identity_hint explicitly says ExpressDistributionPark HorseyLevel northBridgwater; use Bridgwater locality only, not Horsey in Norfolk or the grid substation. Locality representative point only; no site coordinate inferred.
Map points are not surveyed parcel boundaries or electricity connection nodes. The stage is a source-based interpretation at the evidence cutoff, not a current-status check.
