Incorrect (sorry). The Royal Mail give seven mistakes which can make a
postal address incorrect, of which one is 'Do not put the Post town in
lower case.'

The others a
Do not indent the address
Do not omit the name or building number
Do not punctuate


What about a letter to Westward Ho!?

Do not use the words 'near' or 'by' (I suppose you have to if you are
sending something to Stoke by Clare or Stoke-by-Nayland)


Or Kingston near Lewes.

Do not leave the Postcode incomplete
Do not underline or write anything beneath the Postcode.
