It's a bit less detailed than you'd think because the housing pattern
here isn't single houses with gardens - it's centred on my postcode's
centroid, not on my house.

The way UK postcodes work is that the more of the postcode you 
give, the more accurate it is.

So if you look at EH, it's a largish area of SE Scotland. EH11
is about a mile by half a mile. EH11 1 is a few hundred yards
in each direction. EH11 1QJ is about 3 houses.

There's only 1 which is at all significant or noticeable, and even that's 
well
hidden. It's actually a pretty nice area:
