	House numbering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		House numbering is the system of giving a unique number to each building in a street or area, with the intention of making it easier to locate a particular building.
		In Europe the most common house numbering scheme is to number each plot on one side of the road with ascending odd numbers, from 1, and those on the other with ascending even numbers, from 2, or sometimes 0.
		In Britain the even numbers will typically, although not always, be on the lefthand side as one moves in a direction away from the centre of the town or village, with lower numbers at the end of the street closest to the town centre or town hall.
