GeoPlace recognises ‘Britain’s Most Fantastic Address’

At GeoPlace LLP’s annual Awards, some of the more unusual house names and addresses in Britain came to light in a new category, the “Award for Britain’s Most Fantastic Address”. Some properties are renamed frequently. Others occupy land that doesn’t lend itself to systematic numbering or identification. A few buildings have to be seen to be believed and, even then, everyday names used by residents may not seem logical. Many examples were submitted to GeoPlace’s Awards. Across Britain, Street Naming and Numbering Officers, and Address and Street Custodians regularly send details of changes to house names and addresses to GeoPlace, thereby keeping the official National Address Gazetteer up to date. www.geoplace.co.uk
