Surely that’s what associatedStreet relations are for.

Does Nominatim already supports associatedStreet relations to pick up the
postcode ?
When I tried it 8 months ago, it just used it to find a street segment (the
first one in the relation). It then took the name of that street segment as
the street name for the address.

Hi all,
In my area the council does a handy thing: they mark postcodes on the
lampposts. So I've been noting them down for mapping. However, it's a
curse as well as a blessing...
Of course lampposts are not identical with segments-of-streets, nor
with building-addresses, so it's rarely clear

postcodes on each side of the road. Firstly, is that normal?

It's quite normal, yes. My street has three postcodes. One covers both

Postcodes are part of an address and belong to a building, not a street,
