Letter addressed to 'woman in Cornwall shed' arrives at its correct home (2021)

14 hours ago

Royal Mail successfully delivered a letter to a woman despite it only being addressed to her as living in a 'blue and green shed' near a village 21 miles from Land's End, with no town, street, or postcode.
The sender referenced Catrina Davies' appearance on BBC2's Simon Reeve Cornwall Programme, and a postal worker added a note reading 'Royal Mail, we never fail!' to the envelope.
Ms Davies praised the delivery as a 'sterling effort', noting it made her feel the world is 'smaller and more local', and Royal Mail attributed success to 'local knowledge' and 'detective skills' of staff.
