Disclosed funding in Lancashire is led by a single outlier: Kingswood Homes’ $37M round (2023-05-04), which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amount at $20M (Celerity, 2021-11-24). After that, the next tier clusters around the $6M–$8M range (Velocity Composites $8M on 2023-08-09; Fuuse $8M on 2025-10-13; Relative Insight $7M on 2022-03-29), while several others sit below $4M (e.g., LiNa Energy $3M on 2022-11-04; Panache Cruises $4M on 2025-12-11).
Geographically, the list is city-concentrated, with Lancaster appearing 8 times and Preston 7 times, suggesting repeated deal flow in the same metro centers rather than a broad scatter. Temporally, the rounds shown span 2021-01-13 (Connect Childcare) to 2026-05-07 (Quinas Technology, undisclosed), with the most recent disclosed amounts occurring in 2026-04-17 ($2M for urfuture) and 2025-12-11 ($4M for Panache Cruises). On classification, “Series Unknown” appears frequently enough to shape the stage mix, sitting alongside named early-stage labels such as Pre-Seed and Seed.

Frequently asked
What stands out in the funding-size distribution, and is there a clear outlier to focus on?
Yes. Kingswood Homes’ $37M (2023-05-04) is the only disclosed round above the rest by a wide margin; the next-largest disclosed amount is $20M (Celerity, 2021-11-24). After those, multiple deals cluster around $8M (Velocity Composites $8M on 2023-08-09; Fuuse $8M on 2025-10-13) and $7M (Relative Insight $7M on 2022-03-29).
Are deal activity and funding concentrated in specific cities rather than spread across Lancashire?
The city pattern is concentrated: Lancaster appears 8 times and Preston appears 7 times, with repeat-company locations like Lancaster (e.g., LiNa Energy $3M on 2022-11-04; Relative Insight $7M on 2022-03-29; Miralis $2M on 2022-03-08) and Preston (e.g., Celerity $20M on 2021-11-24; urfuture $2M on 2026-04-17). Chorley also appears twice (Apoello 2026-02-18 $640K; Panache Cruises 2025-12-11 $4M).
Which disclosed rounds fall closest to the most recent dates in this dataset?
Among disclosed amounts, the newest are urfuture’s $2M on 2026-04-17 and Panache Cruises’ $4M on 2025-12-11. Earlier but still late-period disclosed rounds include Fuuse $8M on 2025-10-13 and Propello Cloud $330K on 2024-10-01.
Does the stage mix show a dominant pattern, or are early-stage rounds scattered across many labels?
The stage mix includes a heavy “Series Unknown” presence, which appears alongside named early stages like Seed (e.g., urfuture $2M on 2026-04-17; LiNa Energy $3M on 2022-11-04; Miralis $2M on 2022-03-08) and Pre-Seed (Apoello $640K on 2026-02-18; Rocky $400K on 2022-02-08). Several of the highest disclosed rounds are also tied to non-standard labels like “Venture - Series Unknown” (Fuuse $8M on 2025-10-13) rather than a single, consistently named stage.
Are there any notably small disclosed rounds that help bracket the range for a pipeline screen?
TymeOnline is the smallest disclosed amount at $200K (2022-03-21), which sits far below the mid-tier cluster around $1M–$4M (e.g., First Class Metals $1M on 2023-06-26; Invincibles Studio $1M on 2023-04-06; Panache Cruises $4M on 2025-12-11). That makes $200K a useful lower bound when filtering for disclosed check sizes in this region.
