For example, querying the following Northern Irish address returns a single accurate result: "220 Ravenhill Avenue, Belfast".

However, if I append the correct postcode to the query (either the full postcode or the first segment), no results are returned: "220 Ravenhill Avenue, Belfast, BT6 8LL" or "220 Ravenhill Avenue, Belfast, BT6"

I have encountered similar behaviour for a number of NI addresses but have noted that this isn't always the case when searching, for example, addresses in London.

EDIT: After further digging, this appears to be due to there being no postal code information for NI.

I believe if the post code isn't one which is known, at very least, it should be omitted and results should be returned for the query sans post code.

Thoughts?
