CR2 8WD is a postal code used within the United Kingdom for delivering mail.
Postcodes are made up of two parts. The part before the space (CR2) is called the outward code. The part after the space (8WD) is called the inward code. The letters C, I, K, M, O and V are not allowed in the inward code. In addition to the inward and outward code, the postcode can be broken up into four parts:
- Postal Area. In our case CR which means Croydon.
- Postal District. In our case CR2.
- Postal Sector. In our case CR2 8.
- Postcode Unit. The last two letters. In our case WD.
The regional mail center for the post area CR is the Princess Royal Distribution Centre, which is located at Blackmore Drive, North Circular, LONDON , NW10 7RH.
The final port of call for any post addressed to the CR2 8WD postcode is the local delivery office (DO) which is SOUTH CROYDON DO. Here the post will be sorted ready for delivery.
It is situated within the post town of SOUTH CROYDON within the old postal county of Surrey.
