Policy
10.1.2.1
The Field name TOWN_NAME is misleading because the TOWN_NAME can be a village, city, town or recognised settlement name. It is the geographic name of the town rather than the post town name. It is sometimes appropriate to populate the TOWN_NAME with the settlement name.
10.1.2.2
It is often very difficult to define boundaries between adjacent towns, particularly in rural areas and at times Streets appear ‘between’ towns. For information about Streets which pass from one town to another, see Section 10.1.3.
