It's close but not that close, I'm near Orpington station !!
Odd really cos if you type in to Google maps 'Orpington BR6' it's pretty accurate but if you just put 'BR6' it's miles away. Dunno why :confused:

Some postcode areas are quite large and the first part of the postcode just places it centrally. Adding a place name adjusts it accordingly.

One Welsh member gave me a central Wales postcode first part, but the central position placing was several tens of miles away from his position. With little habitation in that area the post code zone was a huge area of central Wales!

Hi Steve,

The map is not precise for security reasons, I only used the postcode that you gave.
If you want to have more accurate location on the map I can move you?

Ah yes, feel more at home now. Still vague enough to be secure though ;)
Thanks.

Good morning John,

If you provide the first part of your postcode Flecc or myself will add you to the map.

Regards,
