Street Naming and Numbering
It is the responsibility of Bromsgrove Council to
process the Street Naming and Property Numbering on behalf of the
Council as a statutory undertaking throughout the District,
ensuring conformity to current standards as set down by the
following legislation:-
- Naming and Numbering of Streets in Accordance with the Town
Improvement Clauses Act, Section 64 and 65;
- The Public Health Act 1925, Section 17; and
- The Local Government Act 1985, Schedule 8, Section 14(1)a
Policy
Although we are not responsible for specifying or suggesting
postal codes, we work very closely with the Royal Mail Post Codes
service which provides information on new street names and numbers,
together with any changes to existing streets, house numbering or
house names. Service providers are also forwarded with the latest
street name/numbering information to help with collation of their
customer base and service supply.
Large and small developers in addition to householders who wish
to change their house name or number may use this service
department.
