Two cousins who live next door to each other have won £1 million thanks to their postcode.
Margaret Livens and cousin Joyce Ablitt, both 72, built a pair of semi-detached houses with their husbands on land gifted to them by their grandfather 47 years ago. As the only two houses on the street, the council gave them their own postcode.
Now they are celebrating after their postcode in Little Neston was announced as the winning ticket in the People’s Postcode Lottery. Retired secretary Margaret and husband Harry, 73, each picked up £333,333 with individual tickets and widow Joyce won the same.
