While '2a' might normally come after '2', in the circumstances you describe it almost certainly comes before it.
I've supervised the deliveries of Yellow Pages across several counties and delivered loads of them myself. So I've walked up and down plenty of streets! It's certainly not unusual to see '2a' before '2'. I've even delivered to a street where '15' was in between '9' and '11', simply because the first owner of the house regarded '15' as her lucky number and would only buy the house if she was given it!

A friend's mother-in-law lived in Reading at a house numbered (say) 305a, which was between 307 and 309. The interesting part was that the road was a long line of semi-detached houses and her house had not been built later than the others. ie, the pairs of houses were numbered 303&305, 307&305a, 309&311 etc in that order.
If you know the postcode for the area you could look up all addresses with that postcode on the royal mail website.
If you dont know the postcode and know the address of a nearby property you can find its postcode.

3a appears between 3 and 5 if there has been infill building
The councils fight hard ro prevent 'Dunroamin' being given 3a AND 3b as now they are two buildings and profits are to be made ( not by them )
Long Roads Uxbridge Rd in London and Oldham rd in Manchester start again at various points ! very confusing for visiitors
