Its only recently some tw@t in the Post Office has seen fit to allow the new
houses to have the names of existing ones though.

Why do you imagine that 'some tw@t' in the PO has 'allowed' any such
thing?

Two points you should understand. Mail is delivered by Royal Mail, not
the Post Office. Neither Royal Mail nor the Post Office have any say in
the description of your property, and/or address.

Your problem should be referred to the relevant local authority. Royal
Mail merely create a database of addresses - they do not approve (or
otherwise) the address, including house names.
