Street naming and numbering guidance

8.1      The Council is responsible for maintaining information relating to South Ribble in the National Land and Property Gazetteer (NLPG). This is done by maintaining a Local Land and Property Gazetteer (LLPG).

8.2       The LLPG and NLPG will be updated to include all authorised new street names, building names and numbering. These will be made in accordance with British Standard BS7666 "Spatial Data-sets for geographical referencing".

8.3       The Council is not responsible for the assignation of postcodes to addresses. The Royal Mail does this. Any queries about postcodes can be dealt with by the Royal Mail by calling 0906 302 1222 (Postcode Enquiries) or via the Royal Mail website.
