Sorry for the series of emails here, but information about the british
systems comes in chunks, as i am not a local, only a resident!

so, regarding main roads, the standard seems to be as follows:
Road code letter - always in capitals (M for motorways, A for trunkroads, B
for minor roads. other road types are unclassified), followed by 1 to 4
numbers.

In the case of M roads, the Junction specification follows, with the letter
J followed by 1 to 2 numbers, and occasionally-in the case of special
junctions, followed by a letter.

e.g.

M1, J5A

Information about a place away from a junction would be given with distance
in miles!
