Summary

Pure DC Brent Cross LON01 B1 — existing data-centre operations (Building 1, 20 MW, four data halls)

Pure DC's release of 3 September 2026, announcing the start of piling for the B2 West Shell, states that the project 'is being delivered within a live operational data centre campus'; Glencar's release of 2 September 2026 says the same. Pure DC's Brent Cross page (Internet Archive copy of 3 October 2026, unchanged on 26 October) identifies the operating part as Building 1, 20 MW and fully operational with four data halls, with Building 2 under construction. This records Building 1 as operating on 3 September 2026; it is not an opening date, and 20 MW is the operator-stated building capacity, not load in service. B2 is excluded. evidence

Location details

Coordinates: 51.57062, -0.23719
Geometry licence: ODbL-1.0
Use scope: Campus locator
Scope class: reviewed_openstreetmap_pure_dc_lon01_named_building_polygon
Authority: Community mapped
Source entity: Building
Method: openstreetmap_lon01_named_building_polygon_as_parent_campus_locator
Derivation: cross_source_geometry
Precision scope: Contributor-mapped polygon for one known LON01 building, used only to locate the parent Brent Cross campus. It is not identified as either B2 work zone, the B2 composite-build footprint, a complete campus boundary, an official parcel or planning boundary, or a current construction-progress extent.
Horizontal uncertainty: Not reported
OpenStreetMap does not state horizontal positional accuracy; community-mapped geometry is not cadastral, planning-authority, or survey geometry.
Geometry evidence: ee256a2f

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
