Roads filed under ML2

Named roads first, then numbered ones. A road is filed under one district even where it runs through several, so a street missing here may be listed under a neighbouring district — which is why the address lookup never calls a British street absent. Great Britain has no open register of buildings, so a listed road never means a building on it exists.

Common questions about ML2

What does an ML2 postcode tell you?

That the address lies in the ML2 district of the ML (Motherwell) postcode area, and the place OS Open Names most often lists first for its postcodes is Wishaw. The district alone does not place a street: the inward half of the full postcode narrows the address to one of the district's 889 live postcodes.
