It's on their website and shows on Google maps.Although that's not showing on Royal Mail's postcode site.
But that doesn't mean it's right, no more so than if they put the date 1189 on the front of the building.It's on their website and shows on Google maps.

Seriously?But that doesn't mean it's right, no more so than if they put the date 1189 on the front of the building.
According to Royal Mail, and they should know, 38 High Street has the postcode ST15 8AW not 8AS.
Yes, I'm always serious.Seriously?

Royal Mail are responsible for allocating postcodes in the UK, and they clearly allocate ST15 8AW to that building.But that doesn't mean it's right, no more so than if they put the date 1189 on the front of the building.

I always thought that a postcode related to a particular street and all premises on that street had the same postcode.Royal Mail are responsible for allocating postcodes in the UK, and they clearly allocate ST15 8AW to that building.
My SatNav recognises both postcodes, but if I put in ST15 8AS it specifically comes up with only the Crown Hotel. It also appears that the Crown have been using ST15 8AS since at least 2015.
If a street is fairly long, it may have several postcodes. Around forty houses seems to be the threshold. Enquiring about your bin day from SBC will require you to choose your house number from a list of those with the same postcode.I always thought that a postcode related to a particular street and all premises on that street had the same postcode.
Looking at Stone and also around Stafford Market Square it looks like some commercial premises have their own postcode.
SBC's list for mine has thirty houses in, all on the same side of the road.Postcodes have around 18 properties in them (from when I last cut the data). Each property is given a unique delivery point suffix for help with sorting.
A postcode never covers more than one street however small hence ST16 3XG covering just the only two houses, 1 and 3, in Lytham Drive on Kingston Hill, and ST16 2JS covering just the only three houses, 1, 2 and 10, in Nursery Lane. .If a street is fairly long, it may have several postcodes.

Some large premises may have their own specific code, indeed some may even have more than one, for different purposes.
Have you ever thought about taking your bins to the nearest pub with their own postcode?My postcode for the bin collection day on the council website has the wrong collection day whereas other houses that share the postcode have the correct day.
The picture would seem to imply that not only will the new building be much, much closer to the balancing lake than the existing one but also that all the trees and shrubs around the balancing lake will be removed.

Borrowed money that will never be paid back. The tax payer will bail them out. Not just Stafford college mind, they're all at it.28 Million on Earl Street, 18 Million down at Palmborne.
No shortage of cash here.
Flower bed..?Edinburgh wool is now 'bed factory '. But it just looks like a front, probably another grow farm upstairs
