Some background on England and its area codes

England's area codes, part of the UK's National Telephone Numbering Plan, have evolved since their inception. Initially introduced in the 1950s, they were part of the Director Telephone System, which included a limited number of cities. The codes were later expanded with the introduction of All Figure Dialling in the 1960s.

In 1995, the "PhONEday" initiative added a '1' to the start of many area codes to standardize numbering and accommodate growing demand. London's area codes changed from 071 and 081 to 0171 and 0181, eventually consolidating to 020 in 2000. This shift aimed to streamline communication and address number exhaustion.

The structure of England's area codes typically follows a geographic pattern, with the initial digits often indicating a specific region. For example, area code 0113 serves Leeds, while 0161 covers Manchester. Additionally, the length of local numbers varies, with some areas having six-digit numbers and others having seven-digit numbers.
