(Envelope Address)
Sometimes there is an eighth part, the Postscript.
The heading, in full, consists of the sender's name, address and the letter's date. However, most
official and business letters are engraved or printed with a letterhead giving the name and address of
the office. The heading which is to be typed need consist of only the date, which is typed toward the
upper right side of the paper.
When writing on paper without a letterhead, the typed heading should be typed on the top right-
hand side of the page. (In modern computer-typed letters the heading may also be found in the left-
hand margin.)
In a private letter your address should appear in the top right-hand corner arranged so that it can be
read easily. The arrangement of the lines may be either straight (block) or staggered (indented, or
step) according to your ideas or the nature of your address; but there must be separate lines. The
first will be the name, if any, of your house. The second will be the number of your house and the
name of the road. The third will be the village, town or city; then the country, and last, your
Postcode (if any). For example:
