not too bad/good but lower than I recommend @ 12.2v to avoid mis reads in the system ( Bitter Experience ). Could explain a few things. Anyway, charge the battery up and start over again.

Finally got round to charging my battery, and cleared the codes, they all stayed off, then while driving I had the engine fault come up with ECO flashing, then after a restart the lights went out.
Plugged in the digabox and had the codes:
B1175 15 - Status: Temporary
And the 3 old codes.
Status: Intermittent
U1133
U1134
U1400
Does this relate to faulty brake switch? or do I need to drive it more and see if the errors come back?

11.9v
If this is at the battery as is without cranking , you have issues. Anything below 12.2v can give issues with comms reading. Even low cranking voltages can give issues in readings with a "healthy" battery.
Test both static and cranking voltages after you charge the battery up. If a steady cranking voltage can't be maintained then you have Battery/ Cabling / Earthing issues. I can't say which it is but Battery is the usual one but not always.
It is worth remembering on start up that a healthy alternator will kick in quite quickly with a charging voltage around 14v 14.3v so that power supply will mask the battery condition reading.
