I've moved you to Cromwell Road, Redhill now Chris.

We use the first half of the postcode to maintain privacy but some postcode areas are so large the centre indicated on the map can be miles away from someone. The postcode system was based on the old sales cell system and based on population, so more sparcely occupied ares get large postcode areas.

Someone once gave me a central Wales postcode and the point indicated turned out to be over 50 miles from his location! Clearly a very lightly populated area so the postcode first half covered a vast tract of land.

Actually, can you put me at RH1 6QG by St John's Church. Thanks

I'm afraid you didn't Tony, without editing rights your attempted entry disappeared as soon as you left the site.

If you let me have the first half of your postcode I can enter you permanently.

Hi, you only need to give the first part of your postcode i.e. BH10.

I suggest that you delete the second part ASAP so that a bike thief can't find the street where you live.

Would you add me at NG17, please.

Portland Square, Sutton-in-Ashfield is fine, where there is the largest Sundial in Europe.

Interesting that the areas where there are pins are those that are completely flat, or extremely hilly.
