OK, thanks. Next question: the current (shortly to be removed!) entry 
has a ref:pol_id tag with a value of 130984. Where is that information 
coming from? I presume it's published open data, or we wouldn't be using 
it, but the ID in there doesn't match the ID on the Post Office branch 
finder website, so I'm a little puzzled.
