POSTCODES<br />
HOW THEY ARE STRUCTURED<br />
Each Postcode (1.8 million in the UK) is a<br />
combination of between 5 and 7 numbers and<br />
letters representing 6 distinct levels of information<br />
presented in two halves. The first half, the<br />
Outward Code, represents one of 124 Postcode<br />
Areas in one of 2869 Districts. The second half<br />
of the Postcode, or the Inward Code, defines a<br />
Sector (nearly 9500) and a handful of<br />
addresses called Unit Postcodes.<br />
Take for example,the Postcode: SW18 1AZ<br />
OUTWARD INWARD<br />
S W 1 8 1 A Z<br />
Area District Sector Unit<br />
Level 1: Areas<br />
The country is segmented into 124 Areas which are<br />
denoted by the first two letters of the Postcode,<br />
e.g. SW<br />
Level 2: Districts<br />
Each Area is subdivided into Districts which are<br />
denoted by the number(s) in the first half of the<br />
Postcode (or Outward Code), e.g. SW18<br />
Level 3: Subdistricts<br />
This level of Postcode is a special division within<br />
the District Outward code and only occurs in<br />
certain densely populated location in London,<br />
For instance, the House of Commons’ Postcode<br />
is SW1A 0AA<br />
Level 4: Sectors<br />
Each District is further broken down into<br />
individual Sectors, which are denoted by<br />
the first number in the second part of the<br />
Postcode, e.g. SW18 1<br />
Level 5 & 6: Subsectors & Units<br />
These final two levels of the Postcode pinpoint<br />
a group of addresses, or even in some cases an<br />
individual business premises, e.g. SW18 1AZ<br />
