List Of Dialling Codes In The United Kingdom
This is a list of telephone dialling codes in the United Kingdom. It is based on Ofcom's area code list, but includes defunct codes and historical changes, including the derivation of the two letter identities where known. Dialling codes do not correspond to any geographical boundaries, so for example the Coventry dialling code covers a large area of Warwickshire and the Manchester dialling code covers part or all of several neighbouring towns. The United Kingdom adopts an open dialling plan for area codes within its public switched telephone network. Therefore all area codes have a preceding 0 (zero) when dialling from within the United Kingdom. When dialling a UK number from abroad, the zero should not be included.

“Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.”

“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“We must trust infinitely to the beneficent necessity which shines through all laws. Human nature expresses itself in them as characteristically as in statues, or songs, or railroads, and an abstract of the codes of nations would be an abstract of the common conscience.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The United States themselves are essentially the greatest poem.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“The masses of the sea
The masses of the sea under
The masses of the infant-bearing sea
Erupt, fountain, and enter to utter for ever
Glory glory glory
The sundering ultimate kingdom of genesis’ thunder.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
