	To the best of my knowledge, by name only. I've used it many many times, and haven't found anywhere one could enter an address. The only way of doing it would be to click on the county name under the search box, then the parish, and try and find the address that way, but it would probably take a very long time to do. Jan.

It isn't searchable this way, but if you knew what parish the street was in it would be possible . Like searching the microfiche at the library etc. Difficult if a large parish though. Margaret
