South Kensington’s Man and Van

Are you looking for somewhere to live in London?. Is it becoming more and more difficult to chose somewhere because of all the options available?. If so you should focus your search using the postcode areas that are used in the region. It splits everywhere up into digestible pieces and allows you to easily go in depth if necessary. The SW (South-Western) postcode is one of the main London postcodes created in 1857 and obviously covers the south-west of the region.

When the S region was abolished in1868, some of it was amalgamated into SW, then from 1917 onwards all London postcodes have had subdivisions created within them because it allowed for more accurate navigation, easier mail delivery and allowed for street signs to have expanded information printed on them. There are currently twenty-eight in SW, ranging from SW2 to SW20, with SW1 having multiple districts such as SW1A and SW1E. SW99 is a non-geographic postcode located within SW3 that is used for direct marketing and PO Boxes by businesses. SW1-10 cover the south-west London areas with SW11-20 encompassing the Battersea district.  SW7 is responsible for South Kensington and a part of Knightsbridge which are both located with the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea. The post town sued on addresses is LONDON. SW7 is bordered by SW1, SW3, SW5, W2 and W8, meaning that Westminster, Chelsea, Earls Court, Hyde Park and Paddington are nearby.
