Check a postcode

What's around you

Weather, the nearest trains and buses with live times, and the local guide where there is one.

How it works

When you enter a postcode, we look up where it is using postcodes.io, an open service built on Office for National Statistics and Ordnance Survey data. From that spot we find the three nearest National Rail stations and the nearest bus stops that have services, and ask for the next departures. The weather is a three-day forecast for the same spot from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute.

Live bus times show in minutes when the bus is being tracked; otherwise you see the timetabled time. Train times need a live data connection from National Rail. When it is not available, we link you to National Rail's own departure board for each station, which is always up to date.

Town guides

If your postcode is in one of our towns, you will also see a link to its full guide, with events, places to eat and drink, where to stay and more. See the town guides.

Your privacy

We do not ask who you are, and we do not keep a record of the postcodes people look up against them. To answer quickly, we keep each result for a day, without anything that identifies you. Read our privacy notice for the details.

Times can change at short notice. For important journeys, check with the train or bus operator before you travel.
