Sorry for my asking the question not directly linked to the mainstream of this mailing list but I am desperate to know this.
I am looking for a free of charge UK postcode database. It's for the purpose of the website I am programming currently, which is of non-commercial nature. The first part of the post code, the out code, would be enough to serve my purpose. I need to know names of towns corresponding to particular out codes and to be able to calculate the distances between post codes. Can you recommend anything reliable?
http://www.npemap.org.uk/ or http://www.freethepostcode.org/
are the only places I can think of that'll provide you with data you can use without charge.
