Standards are the FSA's own descriptors for the inspection sub-scores, which are demerit points: 0 is fully compliant and higher is worse. FHRS inspections only; Scotland's FHIS scheme does not publish sub-scores. A rating date is when the rating was published on the register, not when the inspection happened.
What has happened at these branches

The oldest rating here
37 FRONT STREET, LEADGATE (DH8 7SB) was last rated on 1970-01-01, 56.7 years ago. A rating that old describes the kitchen as it was inspected then, which may be nothing like the one trading today. The FSA publishes the rating; it does not tell you how old it is.
