General

This section of the manual contains guidelines on how a description of properties should be entered into the address section of the LRS. By following these guidelines, title sheets will be created in a consistent style and maximum use will be made of the address gazetteer. 

Although the deed is the main source of information regarding the address of the property being registered, the application form may also contain additional address information that will help in getting a match with a gazetteer entry.

For additional guidance on indexing shared plots, see Sample Property Section Styles - Shared Plots.
