It is always interesting to see more information being made freely available. Companies
House has launched a [beta service](https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/) which will
eventually replace [Companies House Direct](https://direct.companieshouse.gov.uk/).
Current features of the beat service include company overviews, current and resigned
officers, document images, mortgage charge data, previous company names, insolvency
data, change registered office address. Planned features still to be included in
the beta service include officer searching, disqualified directors, company monitoring,
company name availability, dissolved companies, overseas data, other document filings.
It remains to be seen whether Companies House will continue to show details of recent
addresses. It looks like more directors are opting for service addresses.
