Actually it works down to sector level, NR10 3 in the current example.
The reason the space is required is because it would be impossible to
parse some postcodes automatically to extract that data.
Eg: NR103JR -- could parse NR10 3 fairly easily.
NR103 -- same
NR13JR -- could parse NR1 3 fairly easily
NR13 -- means something completely different.
So consistency is enforced. It's only possible to get away with no
space where you can be confident that the complete postcode is quoted.
If you can be confident of that, you could add in a space yourself
before sending it to the API.
