I want to add postcodes but I am aware of issues with this being

Add them to what exactly?
I have come across https://postcodes.io which states it is from open
sources. I have contacted them here
https://ideal-postcodes-support.herokuapp.com/channel/support .
They have confirmed that this data is released under the Open Government
Licence
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/2/ .
That data set only gives a centroid for each post code though, it
doesn't tell you what postcode a particular building has.
I am not bulk adding these (I do not have the technical knowledge or
time) I am just adding postcodes to properties as I add them.
So how are you working out which postcode to use? Sometimes it is
fairly obvious from the centroid location but it often isn't.
