With regard to UK tax on crypto and mining I've put my understanding of the situation here: https://bitcoin-investors.co.uk/2018/03/uk-tax-on-bitcoin-and-other-cryptocurrencies/
All feedback appreciated.

You can use Coinfloor.co.uk but I don't know how the transfer process then goes to your bank account.
Localbitcoins is pretty good in that it's not an exchange per se but rather a marketplace. So you deal with verified individuals. They transfer the agreed sum of GBP using normal bank transfer and you then release your coins via Localbitcoins' escrow service.
Bottomline, when it comes to taxation in the UK is you pay for capital gains (unless it's a business - then it's corporate tax). But afaik only as far as you realise that gain, i.e. you exchange against GBP.

Coinbase will deposit into a uk bank account once you are verified. You would really need to speak to an accuntant as said as (I believe) if it over a certain amount of earnings then it is deemed income and thus subject to being taxed at the applicable rate. If you have a gaming rig with a couple of cards and earn a few quid then I probably wouldnt worry too much.
I would look at the same way. If you are not building 10 x 6 card rigs and as gt_addict wrote if you have a gaming rig with a couple of cards and earn a few quid then I probably wouldn't worry too much. Happy mining.

If this is a business and you make regular earnings and they go to your bank account you should really pay tax on it.
not really a business more of a hobby, someway to make a bit of profit while i'm out at work. not really going deep into it with 8 card rigs etc lol
