Can you answer a question about CR9 8AB?
CR9 8AB is a large user postcode in Croydon. It was first introduced in April 1987.
'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:
Shirley Oaks Hospital, Poppy Lane, Croydon CR9 8AB.
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.
CR9 8AB is in the London travel to work area. NHS services are provided by the Croydon Primary Care Trust.
