List of postal districts in the United Kingdom

This is a list of the post towns of the United Kingdom – it appears in postcode sequence.

Every town has one or more postal districts, for example PE2. These are also called postcode districts or outward codes. In rural areas a postal district may cover more than one post town. A group of postal districts with the same alphabetical prefix is called a postal area, for example YO.

The Royal Mail recommends that in addresses the post town should be written in capitals. Since 1996 former postal counties no longer form part of a full correct postal address.
