A significant authority gap exists on the ‘cqteam.php’ page, which features an H4 for the ‘Cathedral Quarter BID Team’ but contains zero names, bios, or digital footprints for its leadership or board. While the schema_json provides a valid physical address and phone number, the lack of Person schema for the ‘voluntary Board of Directors’ mentioned in the text creates a transparency void.

The site makes a strong performance claim regarding the ability to ‘leverage monies’ and cites a specific 2019/20 investment of £273,000. Against the system date of May 2026, this evidence is stale (72 months old), creating a disconnect between past performance and current accountability. No current performance metrics for the 2021-2026 mandate are provided in the clean text.

Identity & Authority is read from the structured data first: whether the site declares who it is in machine-readable schema, with verifiable identity links. Below is the schema captured per page, then the external proof links that support (or fail to support) that identity.
