Buffet_Ball   10 #3 Posted June 24, 2007 Or you could try the estate agents websites if you want a visual representation:  I can't post links yet but Blundells, Saxton Mee and Haybrook all show the post code areas. Just click on property search on their homepage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Thanks  Sadly this is another example of a resource that has been compiled at public expense, but to which the public is denied free access. Even the local councils who have the responsibility of providing the information to keep the Royal Mail's Postcode Address File up to date, have to pay for access to it !!  Last time I had a look at this issue I think paper maps for a specific PC area wtih detail down to district and sector level boundaries cost around £30 but I couldn't buy a digitised version unless I bought the map for the whole of England at a cost of £1800 !!  BTW if you were the editor for that Wiki entry quoted above can I remind yiou that Worrall is in S6 and High Bradfield is not on top of a hill, but half way up the hill between Low Bradfield and Kirk Edge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
