We have one recently completed in the Shetland Islands, the SaxaVord Spaceport [0], which has been given approval to do up to 30 launches a year. The UK spaceport guide [2] has more details and a few more planned launch sites.

That isn't a launcher, just a launchpad.
From the spaceport guide- Orbex Prime is a microlauncher planned for flight next year with a 180kg payload capacity, this satelite was 150kg.
