11.11.1
These examples illustrate how best to enter address details for complex and grouped properties into an LLPG. They show Authority Address Custodians how to deal with legacy data which are addresses that are in common use but have not necessarily been subject to the SNN process. New addresses created should not be numbered in the way these examples are, rather the conventions and best practice described in Section 4 should be adhered to. For this document’s definition of a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO), see Appendix J.
11.11.2 Legacy data examples
11.11.3 Alpha flat IDs (legacy data example 1)
A house is divided into 4 flats which are addressed Flat A to Flat D.
All flats are accessed by a single door.
Create BLPUs for each of the flats, with SAOs as: “Flat A”, “Flat B”, 2Flat C”, “Flat D”, under a Parent of: 7.
7 “PP”
“Flat A” – “RD06”
“Flat B” – “RD06”
“Flat C” – “RD06”
“Flat D” – “RD06”
11.11.4 Suffixed PAOs (legacy data example 2)
A house is divided into 4 flats which are addressed 7A to 7D.
All flats are accessed individually by a single door for each flat off the Street.
Create four BLPUs with PAOs as: 7”A”, 7”B”, 7”C” and 7”D” respectively, therefore all the BLPUs are numbered directly into the Street.
7”A” – “RD06”
7”B” – “RD06”
7”C” – “RD06”
7”D” – “RD06”
11.11.5 Descriptive flat (legacy data example 3)
A house is divided into 4 flats which are addressed descriptively.
All flats are accessed by a single door.
This example is typical of data from many Council Tax systems, where descriptive flat locations are preferred instead of flat identifiers. In many cases these flats also have either alpha or numeric identifiers.
If alphabetical or numeric identifiers exist, use these instead of descriptions.
Only in exceptional circumstances should descriptive flat LPIs be added to the LLPG as approved Records. They may, however, be captured as Alternative LPIs or more appropriately in the LEVEL Record within the LPI Record.
Create BLPUs for each of the flats, with SAOs as “Basement Flat”, “Ground Floor Flat”, “First Floor Flat”, “Second Floor Flat”, under a Parent of: 7.
7 “PP”
“Basement Flat” – “RD06”
“Ground Floor Flat” – “RD06”
“First Floor Flat” – “RD06”

“Flat D” – “RD06”
7”A” – “RD03”
