Town Hall, 128-142 High Road, Ilford, IG1 1DD


As will 128, IG1 1DD

I've never ever include ranges of numbers in the address, and cannot
conceive of any logic (except vanity) for their inclusion.


It's mainly for the convenience of people walking down the road looking
for No 144, and counting front doors. In some cases it'll be because a
site spread from (say) No 132 in both directions, and people with the
old address are helped by the new front door saying more than just "No
128".
