Description
In the UK countryside, people name their houses!
These houses don't have house numbers, they use a name instead.
It seems like this is a very difficult problem to solve but we could simply make an attempt to parse addresses like "Hollies Croft, Chester Rd, Kelsall, CV60RJ" by treating tokens from sections before the street (so commas a required) as a 'venue name' or 'place'.

Research direction
Start by tracing the parser's address classification entry point and reviewing how comma-separated address sections are currently interpreted. Define the expected handling for the supplied house-name example, then add coverage demonstrating that the venue or place is identified without breaking existing address parsing.
