How would it work where the house has a name instead of a number e.g. Wisteria cottage, Bristol, BS1 1AA?

I presume that ‘hashes’ to 11.
Correct. Which means if you’re taking deliveries it’s probably better to have a house number as you get validated more frequently.
I live on a road where all the houses on one side were built first and numbered 1 2 3 4... The houses on the other side were built later and have names and no numbers.
It would just be 11
