How do I find out what type of business this is?

MistyM, 23 November, 2008 at 20:37 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 7

Pure nosiness really but there is a shop unit close to where I live that has no sign outside it but is definitely some sort of business. It has a sign in the window that shows when it is open but you have to get in with a buzzer and there are blinds in the window so you can't see in. I am intrigued as to what business it is - is there any way of finding out what it is, based on it's address along?

I have tried to look on Companies House website but the online search is unavailable at the moment and I'm not sure I can search by address alone anyway.

    I'm not sure, but if you know the street name could you try and find the postcode and then search on Yell.com or something? Otherwise I would have suggested companies house but you have tried that.

    I am quite intrigued now!

    I found out what business an employee of mine was planning on starting up by looking at local council planning applications - it was listed as it was a change of use

    Exactly what I was thinking to be honest. What are the opening times?

    Simplistic, but have you tried just putting the address into google?

    Mystery solved! I put "massage" and the address into google and it is a "health studio" which seems to offer extras! That hadn't even occurred to me as it is in a small village and I would have thought I would have heard gossip about it since I have lived here a while.

    Yep, you were right! I have even found a website that rates the lady who works there, think I will stop googling now ?
