"Either Ormskirk's getting smaller or Burscough's getting bigger!"
Townley Rogers of the Ormskirk Takeaway Drivers Association's been in touch with the busy QLocal newsdesk after a number of members reported difficulty finding a new 'Burscough' estate that's in Ormskirk!
And a little bit of digging by reporter Roger Blaxall's found that his claim is correct - and verified by Royal Mail.
So despite being IN Ormskirk, the new homes on the High Grove Park estate all have Burscough postcodes as this letter proves; it's not known if householders will have to pay a parish precept to Burscough PC.
A Royal Mail PR officer told Blaxall: "The postcode is a sorting and routing instruction to assist with the efficient sorting and delivery of mail to our customers.
"As such, it does not necessarily reflect borough/parish boundaries.
"The new postcode will be linked to the operational site that will serve the development.”
