The direct answer

A reused description can send the wrong location signal even when the visible address is correct. Metadata should agree with the page's own identity.

Start with the evidence

Compare the description with the branch heading, address and services. Check the initial response as well as any changes made after JavaScript renders.

Make the change deliberately

Repair the field mapping in the template and test multiple branches. Avoid claiming the snippet is fixed until the published source is correct; search displays may take longer to update.

Platform guidance can change. Consult the current official documentation before making platform-specific changes.
