Summary

DD8 0BJ is a large user postcode in Forfar, Angus. It was first introduced in December 2013.

'Large User' postcodes are allocated to organisations which receive large amounts of post. Unlike standard geographic postcodes, which cover up to 80 addresses, a large user postcode is unique to a single address.

To the best of our knowledge, the current address of this postcode is:
Hear Me, PO Box 7010, Forfar DD8 0BJ.

The geographic coordinates assigned to a large user postcode may not necessarily be the actual coordinates of the location to which mail is delivered. If the address is a PO Box, then the coordinates will usually be the Royal Mail sorting office which handles mail for that postcode. In other cases, the coordinates of the postcode may be the headquarters, or registered office, of an organisation rather than the building which receives mail.

DD8 0BJ is in the Dundee travel to work area. NHS services are provided by the Angus Community Health Partnership Primary Care Trust.
