Postal administration [ edit ]
The current E postcode area was originally formed 2️⃣ in 1866 as a merger of the E and NE areas, which had been created in 1858. In 1917, the 2️⃣ postal districts were numbered alphabetically by their most important parish, chapelry, topographical or built environment feature.[3] As of 2004, the 2️⃣ district names do not form part of the postal address.[2] High demand caused sector 9 of the E1 postcode district 2️⃣ to be split and recoded in 1999 to create an E1W postcode district around Wapping,[4] but the rest of the 2️⃣ district did not gain an additional character. When districts are used for purposes other than the sorting of mail, such 2️⃣ as use as a geographic reference and on street signs, E1 and E1W continue to be commonly classed as one 2️⃣ 'district'. The E postcode area contains two non-geographic postcode districts for high-volume business users, E77 and E98.[5]
The Eastern District Office 2️⃣ is on Whitechapel Road and was the eastern terminus for the former London Post Office Railway, which has been mothballed 2️⃣ since 2003. The railway ran 10.5 kilometres (6.5 mi) to the Paddington Head District Sorting Office.
