Realised that I replied directly, rather than to the list... Reply below: Hi James,
If there is only one building at the address, I would merge the building and the address point. You can mark the entrance as described here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:entrance If there is more than one building, add a perimeter, and merge the address to that: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses#Multiple_buildings_for_one_housenumber Note that according to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses there are several options for tagging buildings with addresss, but the above are my preferred methods.
