What does type=Crown mean, as one of those near me is marked as this, 
but is actually a concession in a W H Smith's?

I also note that the matching hasn't used the address.  For one of the 
others I mapped all the house numbers, but haven't mapped the businesses 
on that road, so there is a matching object, and it is very close to the 
postcode centroid, but it isn't recognized as matched.  I guess I can 
fix that, on an ad hoc basis.

I must fix another, which was a concession, but is now in a disused 
shop, so only the concession part is still operating, and the shop part 
is empty.
