Common Fold Kennels

Common Fold Kennels is licensed by Wigan Council for cat boarding and dog boarding in Tyldesley & Mosley Common. The council's most recent inspection awarded it 3 stars out of 5.

Across Greater Manchester, 47% of licensed businesses hold 4 stars or above, so this rating sits below the county norm — though a 2- or 3-star business is still fully compliant with the regulations.

Its licence runs to 6 March 2027. Longer licence terms are awarded to higher-rated operators, which is why a distant expiry date is usually a good sign in itself.

Its site advertises dog boarding, cat boarding.

We found no entry for this business on the ICO register of fee payers. That is common for sole traders and is not necessarily a failing, but a business holding your address and door key would normally be expected to be registered.

There are 2 other licensed businesses in Tyldesley & Mosley Common, 1 of which holds a higher council rating.

Under the star rating scheme a 3-star operator qualifies for a licence of up to 2 years and correspondingly fewer unannounced inspections, so the rating affects how often the council will look in as well as what it thought at the last visit.

Wigan Council publishes an address for this licence, which is set out in full below.

We read 3 pages of its website on 2 August 2026, about 1,693 words in total, and extracted 7 details from them.

Council star ratings are the licensing authority's assessment of risk and compliance, not a measure of service quality.

• Local authority animal activity licence registers — English local authorities. Factual fields extracted from each council's published public register: trading name, licence number, licensable activity, star rating and expiry date. Where a council redacts an address — as they routinely do for home boarders operating from a residential address — the record is kept without a location and never geolocated by inference. Licence: Open Government Licence v3.0. Refreshed 1 August 2026.
• Operators' own public websites — The licensed businesses themselves. Factual metadata — description, opening hours, contact details and advertised services — extracted from each operator's own public website. robots.txt is checked and obeyed before every fetch, requests are rate-limited to one per host per run, and every field links back to the page it came from with the date we last checked. Claims operators make about themselves are not verified by us. Licence: Summarised, not reproduced. Refreshed 1 August 2026.
• Postcode geography — Office for National Statistics / Ordnance Survey, via postcodes.io. Postcodes already published in council registers are resolved to a parish or ward and coordinates. Only postcodes the council itself published are looked up. Licence: Open Government Licence v3.0. Refreshed 1 August 2026.
• Licence details are republished from the Wigan Council public register under the Open Government Licence.
• Companies House and ICO entries are matched by trading name and corroborated by location; unconfirmed matches are not published.
