Indeed (for info, for those based elsewhere, a UK postcode covers about 15 households on average).

  Do they mean full postcode or just the first part though? Both are called postcodes.

    Good question, but if they mean the first part only then calling it a postcode would be rather sloppy (this ought really to be called a postcode area or district[1]). On a similar note, it seems ludicrous to provide a full date of birth rather than the year alone.

  The range is wide, though. I've seen at least one residential postcode which covers just two addresses.
