Mortgage deed - postcode missing from the address of the witness

I am in the middle of a house purchase.

I have signed the mortgage deed (for Natwest) in the presence of a witness. As part of the form, the witness needs to put their address and signature.

I have sent this document over to my solicitor, but I have only just noticed that the witness didn't put their postcode in their address, only the 1st line of address, town and county. 

Is this likely to be an issue? I'm just a bit worried that the lender could not release funds after exchange if they spot this. Thanks

    Should not be a problem and if it is they will let you know.
