Postcode Area Map of the UK (ENCAPSULATED)

£30.00

Map showing the boundaries between the postcode areas - the first two letters of the postcode (e.g. RG, NR). The map is fairly plain so information may be added by the user. A large number of place names are shown, with towns roughly classified by population size. England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included. County and unitary authority boundaries are also shown, and there is an enlargement of Greater London. This version comes with a write-on, wipe-off plastic surface. Postcode areas are widely used in marketing or transport as they are based on modern distribution centres and have a versatile system of subdivisions which can be used as necessary. Many of the county boundaries are based on the fiefdoms of medieval or Anglo-Saxon lords, which does not always make them the most efficient system to use!
