How we check
We gather each place's details from its own notices and official pages, map listings and dated visitor posts, and from our own visits. Every place page lists those sources with their dates. We only fill in an item below when a source states it plainly; otherwise it says "Not checked". We aim to check each place again 90 days after we last did, and mark it "Due for a recheck" until we do.
