spiker   10 #121 Posted February 14, 2011 This number being Sheffield's Area code. But is it only followed by 2? In 2003 it was followed only by a 2.  It was late 2004 before the first (0114) 3xx numbers were issued, and mid-2010 before the first (0114) 4xx numbers were issued.  I thought the whole idea of giving cities the 4 digit area code was to take advantage of the extra number for combinations. But Sheffield hasn't seemed to implement it.  They didn't need the extra numbers until 2004.  One technicality, Sheffield has a three digit area code.  I've been looking around recently and I've only seen 0114 2** etc... Considering over half a million people live in Sheffield surely they would be able to implement it.  They did - in 2004, more than a year after your post.
