DLA claim - sent to wrong address?

Hi all,
After hours and hours of completing a DLA child application (absolutely draining!!) and preparing all my evidence, I took the paperwork to the post office.
I know the DLA address is free post but I was told to send it recorded delivery.
The post office said to be able to send it recorded, a postcode was required. Panic! After googling this I found an address;
DLA DWP Child
Mail Handling Site 4
WV98 2GJ.
I paid the postage and off it went but I’m so worried I’ve sent it to the wrong address. The envelope has been signed for this morning so I know someone has it, but after more googling the Citizens Advice website suggests a different address to the one I’ve used! With a completely different postcode!!
If it’s gone to the wrong department, will they forward it to the correct one??
Please help, I can’t stop worrying. I can’t bare the thought of it not being received after so much time and effort has gone into it.
