Wrong postcode area

Why does the 'BD' (Bradford/ Skipton areas) come under 'North West'? It's in the North East surely?

There are a few post code groupings that seem odd.

Yep for instance Shrewsbry - the capital town for Shropshire - is classed as Wales !

I'm glad our planners don't plan our routes using same software this site uses

i know the answer to that one from the job i do... a lot of the SY postcodes is actually in wales...(SY1-13 are in england, SY14-25 are in wales) so that one will always cause problems....

And Sheffield is in the East Midlands too. Though as a guy born and raised in Middlesbrough it was almost in the south to me when I was younger so can understand that mistake!

Though to be fair if it encompasses Sheffield and Essex the east mids must almost be a country in its own right...

northampton

Large areas are covered by some postcodes. We (in Oxfordshire) coe under SN for swindon, which then puts us in southwest. After living in Devon i don't count the Southwest as starting untill you reach Exeter.

Bucks

remember some peeps dont bother entering correct details on their profile so if you search a postcode and they have loaded that as theirs (even though t's totally wrong) then nothing the site can do about it

not north east to me

The north east on here spreads from thr borders to hull, its just one of those weird glitches

Bradford

Actually Bradford is neither the North East (as in durham, northumbria etc) or the north west (as in lancs / cumbria)

so what the hell are we North Middle ?

suppose we could just have yorkshire as a seperate area its big enough.

then sheffield and doncaster stop being east mids (which sheff def isnt)

bradford isnt north west and york / hull isnt north east....

or is that slightly parochial ?
