Default Hemsby / #3496?

Anyone know if Hemsby /#3496 is still reporting.

I thought it had shut in 2001, but this site appears to show data for the
station

I think it's just that they haven't updated their basic information ... I
see
they are still using 03534 for Birmingham airport which closed as a
SYNOP station 3 or 4 years ago. The observation on the Hemsby
page is probably Coltishall (03495), and for Birmingham it's
undoubtedly Coleshill (03535).
