29 addresses on the UK public record each host more than 2,000 active companies, 322,586companies between them. These are the registered-office and formation-agent addresses: a lawful, ordinary part of UK incorporation, and one of the public record’s most misunderstood corners. Each address below has its own public-record profile: how many companies, how fast new ones arrive, and what they do.

Why this happens

A registered office is an address, not premises

Every UK company must file a registered office where official mail can reach it, and nothing requires anyone to work there. Registered-office services rent exactly that, which is why one London building can lawfully be the legal home of eighty thousand companies, most of them run from kitchen tables elsewhere. The practical reading: an address on the public record is an administrative fact; a company’s substance is in its filings and its own website, which is the distinction our enrichment is built on.

These figures refresh monthly with the monthly snapshot, alongside the UK company formations tracker. For companies by real location rather than by service address, the companies by citypages carry the per-place counts, and if a stranger’s company is registered at YOUR address, the fix is the RP07 route.

Leadistry finds UK business leads directly from the Companies House public record. You describe who you sell to in a short conversation, in your own words, and the AI sets up what to watch for: there are no filters or search syntax to learn. Every lead arrives complete, with the registered company record, the director's name when it is on the public record, a working website and a business email on a domain confirmed to accept mail. One lead is one lead: anything else we find, such as a LinkedIn profile or their socials, comes with it at no extra cost. If we cannot complete a lead, you never see it and you are not charged for it, and if a first email bounces, the lead is credited back.

Agents keep watching the public record for you. Each morning we add the companies registered at Companies House the day before, and the rest of the record is refreshed from the Companies House monthly file. Every lead comes with a dated reason to get in touch, such as accounts coming due. A company registered this month rarely has a website or a working email yet, so we hold it back until it can actually be reached.

Each lead is written individually, inside your own template with your logo, pictures, video and links: the opening line is about that company and the specific reason it turned up, so no two emails are the same, and your own words carry the offer. Everything waits for you to approve it, unless you switch Autopilot on, in which case your agents' cards go out on their own in your sending hours. Sending starts at five a day from your own mailbox and warms up slowly, and a reply lands in your own inbox, stops the follow-ups and shows on your Desk.

Company data comes from Companies House under the Open Government Licence. Websites and emails are found on each company's own site and checked against the filing, field by field, so every claim traces to a source. Nothing is bought from brokers, and no email address is guessed from a pattern. Leadistry covers UK companies only. Plans start at £29 a month: Growth £29, Pro £69 and Scale £139. The free trial is 25 leads, once (they do not refill), and your first 25 emails from your own mailbox, with no card. Any company or person can ask to be removed at any time.
