My rant has always been that postcodes are proprietary data and even in 
the NLPG data there is a question on if one can use it! The whole thing 
has always been a mess. Postal Address File I have no problem on being 
proprietary, just not the postcode on it's own ...

I've had to change most of the references but
https://rainbowdigitalmedia.uk/wiki/view/NLPG+Data
is now up to date, just again, BS7666 is another chargeable element and 
my copy is no longer available on-line :(

OH and it should be UPRN/USRN nowadays ... my 2006 databases still have 
the USN field name.
