Instructions

Simply select the out code (most left hand letter(s)) in the postcode from the dropdown list and click the Show button. After a small delay the map will then show all area level postcodes in that area. If you hover over a marker with your mouse, you will see that postcode displayed.

To see a full screen button of the map, click the [Full Screen] button above the map. You can choose to show the outcode postcode boundaries or not by toggling the tickbox. If you wish to search for a location on the map use the search box above the postcode map.

Sort it out guys, this was fine before, it just became utterly useless to me
By BEN on 03/02/2012

This was a great resource, its now completely useless. It doesn't display the postcode under the cursor, which was useful. Its now just a map with the post town area.

This tool was so useful when it showed postcode boundaries and you could see the area code by hovering over each area. This latest change seems to have dropped a really useful functionality
By Phil on 02/02/2012

What postcode is Bath in, or Exeter, or Reading? You used to be able to move the map over a marker and the postcode would be displayed. Without that function what's the point of showing the postcode boundaries. Now you either have to KNOW what postcode to look for or trawl through every one till it outlines the boundary your looking for. I can't see what you've gained from changing this tool. You seem to have taken away functions and added nothing new of any benefit.

Hey, this was a great tool, before the recent updates. Please, return the map pins and the address labels under the map.

If we have to have this page could we also have an alternative to view it the way I have used it for last 2 years - please
By Biscuitman on 01/02/2012

Pity. Not working now. Mac OS 7.7.2 / 10.6.8. I would use it in conjunction with the TomTom route planner and send postcodes to my SatNav. Looking for alternatives.
By Keef on 31/01/2012

Thanks Mick, this will be added soon.
By Free Map Tools on 30/01/2012

the post code no longer shows up when you hover over tab, making it difficult to make out multiple port codes
By Mick on 30/01/2012

Roy, no, we will not be putting it back. However we will bring back any functionality that was there previously. If you could explian what is missing please?
By Free Map Tools on 30/01/2012

What the hell have you done to this! It used to be a brilliant tool, now it's completely useless. PUT IT BACK TO WHAT IT WAS.
By Roy on 30/01/2012

this has always been a great site for planning a route for my day's work, but with out the mouse over postcodes , the maps are just useless
By jack on 27/01/2012

uSELESS!

Er, London??

By Jon on 26/01/2012

By Lisa on 25/01/2012

Could'nt wait any longer.

This site doesn't work?? Just sits there and doesn't show anything?
On 24/01/2012

I clicked "SHOW" (For "NN") and nothing happened - NOT clever
On 23/01/2012

I don't see why you can't allow the map to diplay all the internal sub-code boundaries of a single area i.e. "CF" to display CF37, CF38, CF39, CF40 boundaries etc etc This would not take "2 minutes to load"
