About this plugin
Buyers want to know about the area before they book a viewing. The sigora Area Map answers on your own listing pages: schools, transport, health, sold prices, crime, broadband and more around a live map of the home, every figure from an official UK source and set in your brand colours. It is made for estate and lettings agents in England.
- Property Hive: install the plugin and the Area Map adds itself to every property page. It reads each home’s location from Property Hive’s own fields, with no template edits. The Area Map for Property Hive.
- Any WordPress theme: add the sigora shortcode to your single-listing template once, with each listing’s postcode, plus its coordinates if you have them, and every listing shows its own area. The sigora block adds it to any single page in a couple of clicks. The Area Map for WordPress.

Nine lenses. You choose which ones show.
- Map: the whole area at a glance, on one map around the home.
- Schools: the nearest schools, with their results and the sigora inspection summary.
- Transport: the nearest stations and their lines, and every bus stop within a mile.
- Health: GPs, pharmacies and dentists nearby, with inspection ratings and patient survey scores.
- Prices: HM Land Registry sold prices near the home, set against the council area and England, with five-year trends.
- Crime: the sigora crime rating, with Police.uk figures set against the council area and England.
- Amenities: the cafés, restaurants, pubs, shops and everyday places within a walk.
- Environment: air quality, noise, modelled long-term flood risk from rivers, sea and surface water where covered, and green space.
- Connectivity: Ofcom broadband and mobile coverage, with address-level broadband speed where Ofcom has a match.
Set it up your way, once
Every lens can be switched on or off for your website in the sigora console, and the choice applies to every listing. Lead with Schools if families are your buyers; leave Crime off if it will not help.
- Smart rules: show Crime only where it is better than the national average, and show air quality only when it is acceptable.
- Want a big map? Keep the area summary collapsed for a full-width map.
- Your look: your brand colour and a light or dark theme in the console; Standard or Tall height and a maximum width on the plugin’s sigora page, because your page needs those before the Area Map loads.
Area Reports included
Every plan includes Area Reports: branded, print-ready A4 reports for any address, not just your listings. Generate one from your console in seconds, with your logo on the cover and the same official evidence inside. Leave it with a vendor after a valuation or add it to the viewing pack.
Paid plans include 1,000 Area Reports a month and the free trial includes 15. There is no per-report charge. See a sample report (PDF).

More about the Area Map.
sigora is an independent product. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Property Hive. Property Hive compatibility means the plugin detects Property Hive and places the Area Map on its property pages.
External services
This plugin relies on Sigora, a hosted third-party service, to render the
widget and supply its data. The plugin does not bundle a widget runtime and
cannot show anything without it.
What is sent, where, and when:
-
Hosted widget script. On every page where the widget is placed, the
visitor’s browser loads the Sigora widget script from
js, the address your Sigora
account returns during a connection test. As with any
externally hosted script, that request sends the visitor’s IP address, user
agent, and the page URL as referrer.
-
Local-area data. The loaded script then requests area data from the Sigora
uk. It sends your public Sigora site key, your site’s
origin, the page URL, and the listing context you configured for that
placement – latitude and longitude, or postcode, or place slug – together with
the listing reference. It does not send names, email addresses, or any other
personal data held by WordPress.
-
Connection test. When an administrator presses Test connection on the Sigora
admin page, WordPress makes one server-side request to
uk/api/v1/public/widget/plugin/diagnostic carrying your site
key and your site’s origin. Nothing is sent at any other time.
-
Optional listing inventory. Only if you save a private inventory token,
Sigora reads your published Property Hive listing records from this site over an
authenticated REST route on its own schedule. Remove the saved token to revoke
that access. The token is never emitted in page HTML or in public REST output.
