# Winstanley Hall: Agent-Direct Score C (64%)

Site: http://www.winstanley.ac.uk/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/winstanley.ac.uk
Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Winstanley Hall is partly visible to agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Winstanley Hall's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.
This listing was retired on 2026-10-21 because the source the index uses for its city no longer lists it. The report stays up, but the business is left out of the rankings and counts.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.winstanley.ac.uk/580/open-events (on the business's own site)
- Phone: 01695 633244
- Address: Pemberton Rd, WN3 6DD, Wigan

## What to fix first
- **No tickets and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what does it cost and when?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (challenge:attention required), ClaudeBot (challenge:attention required) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User.** (+3.7 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.
