ERROR: LoadError: ArgumentError: EPSG/ESRI code for the ESRI ID "British_National_Grid" not found in dictionary.
Please check https://github.com/JuliaEarth/CoordRefSystems.jl/blob/main/src/strings.jl
If you know the EPSG/ESRI code of a given ESRI WKT string, please submit a pull request.

I’m reading this shape file from here at the the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS): LAD_DEC_2023_UK_BGC.shp.
Google tells me the British National Grid is EPSG:27700.

How can I circumvent this error and make the file load successfully? Alternatively, can GeoIO be made to “just work” with BNG again as it did a few weeks ago?
