= Scrapers being worked on =

  * Bridgnorth (Duncan) - AcolNet. implemented, but returns error 400 when accessed by script
  * Cambridgeshire (Duncan) - AcolNet. no advanced search page - will need some work
  * Canterbury (Duncan) - AcolNet. results table is different from usual format
  * Guildford (Duncan) - AcolNet, but odd.
  * Isle of Man (Dan)
  * Surrey Heath (Duncan) - AcolNet - The problem here looks like it might be cookie and javascript related.
  * Wychavon (Duncan) - an AcolNet site, but slightly odd.
