I was taught to put a comma behind the house number in addition to at the end of a line and each line was to be indented a little further than the one above.
Of course, this was a very long time ago and the biggest problem I found was transferring the correct amount of ink from the well to the nib of my dip pen to write a line without a blob or running out of ink! (Fact.)
I remember when sending Christmas cards that rather than writing the nearest town and then the county which was laborious on so many envelopes, for those addresses that were only a couple of miles away it was acceptable to write 'LOCAL' after the district.
