That was me too, I would have added the USRN if I'd had it immediately accessible. My understanding is that UPRNs do apply to roads, but have much to learn about them. I've added them to a couple of others at Cinderhill which is housing built on open fields so no historical properties there.
This is a case of establishing what the UPRN actually relates to in terms of the parcel of land covered by it. There WILL be a UPRN for either the parcel of land, or even for the individual fields, but those will be superseded by the new UPRN's for each of the subdivided parcels in the new development. It is MY take on things that publically adopted roads only have a USRN and the historic UPRN is simply that - an historic record. But I believe ( and stand to be corrected ) that private roads do require a UPRN covering the ownership of the land? The UPRN is in essence the reference to the land registration showing ownership, and it may be today that councils are registering the publically adopted roads as has been seen recently with their claiming ownership of land people thought was part of their gardens but which the council want to sell them ... even where land registry records show a different situation?
