Greater London Postcodes to Administrative Wards

An instant download containing London Boroughs, Metropolitan Boroughs and Non-Metropolitan Districts divided into Wards.   The City of London has its own type of Wards based on ancient and permanent sub-divisions of the City. This product is a lookup between every Postcode in Greater London and the Electoral Ward and Districts (Boroughs) they fall within.  As Postcode boundaries and administrative boundaries bear no relation to each other, this product is ideal for those applications where you need to allocate addresses to their respective Wards and Boroughs or where you need to determine all the Postcodes falling within a Ward or District.
