The WP "local authority area" will often fail to be a ceremonial county, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CH_postcode_area CH postcodes are in multiple ceremonial counties (eg Cheshire, Merseyside) which aren't listed (instead: Cheshire West and Chester, Wirral etc). CH1 is not only in more than one ceremonial county, it crosses national boundaries 8-). I'm glad to see the OP has a solution. -- Francis Davey _______________________________________________ Mailing list [email protected] Archive, settings, or unsubscribe: https://secure.mysociety.org/admin/lists/mailman/listinfo/developers-public
