[Talk-GB] UPRN to postcode lookup

[Simon Poole]

I just checked quickly and it does provide a OGC WMTS Simple Profile 
compatible tileset, so

https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/robjn/ckqlezb1x0fmm17mox6x74cug/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}?access_token=pk.eyJ1Ijoicm9iam4iLCJhIjoid0dYNkY1QSJ9.A-0lzQOawGYICYPfURsjDA

should work.
