You will need to be careful with (most) 08/09 numbers in the length check as
you cannot determine algorithmically what the length should be. Although these
numbers are not (normally) dialable from outside the country it's still a good
idea to put them in E.164 international format. Like that,
If the position of the boundary is imported from a source that ultimately has a
very high precision, for example Ordnance Survey or a Council's GIS system
through a shapefile or similar, then the location as recorded in OSM will
likely be more accurate than what would be obtained from tracing
I agree. I suspect that the post town / dependent locality are
correlated against the post code by the OCR processing. If there was no
post town it would seriously degrade the scanning accuracy as the
postcode OCR would need to be 100% accurate, which is not going to
happen given the number of

That's why RM have a Dependent Locality, to distinguish between cases
like this. If the OSM addr:* tags are to represent postal addresses (and
that seems to be the consensus) then OSM should offer a place for the
Dependent Locality. RM say the Post Town is a mandatory component; why

I don't think you can *deduce* the post town from the postcode, but you
can look it up, using the (non-open) PAF. You will need to use the full
postcode though, as sectors can be split amongst multiple post towns.
Let's not drift too far from the original topic of how to represent
