They come from announced rounds. Large rounds are almost always announced and many small ones never are, so the true typical round is probably a little smaller than shown, most of all at pre-seed and seed. Every round behind them is in the record with its source. How we read rounds.

Q&A
How big is a typical Series A round in the United Kingdom?
The median is $14M, from 84 Series A rounds announced in the United Kingdom in the last twelve months. Half of them raised between $5.0M and $27M; one in ten raised more than $50M.
Which rounds are counted?
Rounds announced in the last twelve months with a stated amount and stage, each read from a named article or filing. A page is only published where at least 30 rounds stand behind it.
Are these figures biased?
Towards larger rounds, yes. Big rounds are announced; many small ones never are. So the true typical round is probably a little smaller than the figure here, especially at pre-seed and seed.
How often does it change?
The figures are recounted from the record every night, as new rounds are read.
