UK Telephone Area Codes
This database (actually a CSV file) is a list of UK telephone area codes (aka STD or dialing codes), along with the major towns that they cover. The file contains just over 4,000 entries, and was last updated April 2009. Here's an extract:
0113:Leeds 0114:Sheffield 01159:Burton Joyce 01159:Ilkeston 01159:Long Eaton 01159:Plumtree 01159:Radcliffe-on-Trent 01159:Sandiacre 0115:Nottingham 01162:Billesdon 01162:Great Glen 01162:Hungarton 01162:Kibworth 01162:Tilton 01162:Tugby 0116:Leicester 0117:Bristol 0118:Arborfield Cross 0118:Bradfield 0118:Burghfield Common 0118:Eversley 0118:Heckfield 0118:Kidmore End 0118:Mortimer 0118:Pangbourne 0118:Reading 0118:Silchester 0118:Tadley 0118:Twyford (Berks) 0118:Wargrave 0118:Wokingham 0118:Woolhampton (Berkshire) 01200:Bolton-by-Bowland 01200:Clitheroe 01200:Dunsop Bridge 01200:Gisburn 01200:Slaidburn 01202:Bournemouth 01202:Broadstone 01202:Canford Cliffs 01202:Christchurch 01202:Ferndown 01202:Lytchett Minster 01202:Parkstone 01202:Poole 01202:Verwood
In most cases, each outcode has multiple towns associated with it. Naturally this list does not include non-geographics numbers (eg those starting 08 and 07)
There's a Wikipedia page on UK telephone numbers which lists the structure of UK phone numbers, along with some information on why area codes are of varying lengths
The cost of the database is £20. This reflects the time spent in compiling and checking the information in it. If you'd like a copy of the database, please contact me at pete@linuxbox.co.uk
