Postcodes in Polygon (Great Britain only)     Note: A newer version of this tool is available.

This is a demonstration tool that retrieves a list of GB postcodes based on a polygon area drawn on a map.
To use the tool (a) find a location on the map (b) click the polygon button (c) draw a polygon on the map (or input coordinates as text) (d) click the Postcodes button. The tool will list postcodes in geographic areas up to 15 sq km, and plot them on the map.

This tool was built by @owenboswarva using the Google Maps API v3, some Ajax and Code-Point Open postcode data.

The Code-Point Open data is the February 2013 Release, attribution as follows:
