I've made a few updates to the postcode finder [1]. There's a mixture
of fixes suggested by you people and some other features I'd been
planning on implementing anyway.
The new things:
- Postal address-like info on house pages [2]. It's not very extensive and for
many houses you'll only get

The errors on the map are the same as those which are shown on the

a pinch of salt but make what use of them you can.If anyone has any
suggestions for things to flag or ignore, please

As an addendum I've now also added Codepoint-augumented
The new error map is great, I'll add it to the set of 'lint' tools I keep an
eye on. There is one false positive however:
'Postcode W9 is badly formed' - many streets are tagged with just the first
part of the postcode (the outbound code). This is signed on the ground, and
is useful to

Keep up the good work!
Possible bug: I just tried searching for my own address (42c Mulberry
Road) and it returned no results, but if I search for my postcode (DA11

All good stuff. Any chance of you applying the microformat mark-up I
supplied in the recent thread, please? Do let me know if it doesn't
suit all cases and I'll happily assist in

I've started work using Codepoint Open to perform completeness studies
of OSM postcode data. My plan is to do a rendering like [1] based on
the codepoint data but colour each cell according to whether there's
any matching OSM postcodes.
The problem I have is that there seems to be a large number

Ahh, looking at the map [2] it seems that they are all located at the
