I know what part of the UK the person was last known and the door number but I have lost the name of the road. Any ideas. Please only answer if you can actually help.

I'm afraid if you don't have a postcode then you'll not find them. It's data protection. You look up all the names of the person in the area and eliminate it from there, but with all the people going ex directory you may have an unsucessful hunt. It's all data protection these days I'm afraid.

I know it sounds silly but i saw this in the paper a few weeks ago. A person didnt know the address of the person he was sending a letter to, all he knew was his name and the part of england he was from. (devon). So he drew a map of england and put an 'x' where devon is and said the person he is sending the letter lives somewhere in this area. It probably would only work though if the person has an unusual name, so there would be only one person with that name. It actually got delivered to him!

The phone book for that area will help (if they're listed). If they are based in the Oxfordshire area, I'll check my phone book for you!
You could try the Address Finder at www.postoffice.co.uk, but I believe you need the postcode for that.
If not, you could search by name and area on www.192.com.

do you have the post code for this person that would get the letter there.
You could also try just putting as much information as you know on the envelope, the Royal Mail can some times do wonders with that, and always try to deliver you could be surprised

If you have the postcode only, you can go onto multimap.com and enter in the postcode where it will show you what the road name is along with the rest of the address

you've got the post code or the post code of somebody or company near? then try BT Royal Mail sites or http://www.192.com/ that should do it, with the street number.
Good luck

on occasion the line names are given by ability of builders. different circumstances the close by Councillors call them after one in each of their own names to bypass away their mark for posterity. What they hardly do is seek for suggestion from the citizens.
