If you would like to change the name of your house (in Eastbourne Borough Council's boundary only) then you need to contact us so that we can ensure address records are kept up to date and do not duplicate each other.
We consult with Royal Mail in order to avoid duplication of house names in the same street/adjoining streets. As part of this procedure we inform utility companies, land registry and emergency services of house name changes and new developments.
Please note that postal numbers cannot be removed from properties.
A charge will apply for changing your house name, please see our street naming and numbering policy.
To request a house name change (in Eastbourne Borough Council's boundary only) please fill in our online form below or write to us including your present full address and your proposed new house name.
