Postal codes used in the United Kingdom are known as postcodes . They are alphanumeric and were adopted nationally between 11 October 1959 and 1974, having been devised by the GPO . A full postcode is known as a postcode unit and designates an area with a number of addresses or a single major delivery point.The structure of a postcode is that of two alphanumeric codes each made up of three characters. First, one or two letters indicate the city or region, followed by one or two digits signifying a locality/ area or neighbourhoods in that city/ region. This is followed by a space and then a number and two letters which are allocated to streets, and sides of the street. The central part of the city or region a.k.a the city centre/ town centre will have the number 1 designation alongside the city code e.g B1 , LS1 , M1 - all central addresses. As a general rule, a higher number indicates distance from that centre. See postcode area Postcodes have been adopted for a wide range of purposes in addition to aiding the sorting of the mail: for calculating insurance premiums, designating destinations in route planning software and as the lowest level of aggregation in census enumeration. The boundaries of each postcode unit and within these the full address data of currently about 29 million addresses are stored, maintained and periodically updated in the Postcode Address File database.The initial system of named postal districts, developed in London and other large cities from 1857, evolved towards the present form: in 1917 London was split into broad numbered subdivisions, and this extended to the other cities in 1934. After the reorganisation of London in the 1960s, many parts of the city now lie outside the traditional postcode zone. This includes, but is not limited to, large parts of the TW KT SM CR HA and UB postcode areas, among a few others. The postcode of GCHQ is GL51 0EX, where GL signifies the postal area of Gloucester. The postal town refers to a wide area and does not relate to a specific town, county or region. GL51 is one of the postcodes for the town of Cheltenham which is where GCHQ is located. Theoretically, deliveries can reach their destination using the house number and post code alone, however this is against Royal Mail guidelines who request a full address at all times.
