    I'm shocked @Stephen Dawson has not contributed to this heartwarming thread.

    What do you think it was like for me growing up in Bolton on Dearne? less than a mile to Doncaster (Barnbrough/Harlington) and Rotherham (Wath) boroughs and we had a Rotherham phone number. Of course we ALL had to put up with a Sheffield post code FFS.

    Surprised at the Barnburgh/Harlington postcodes as Donny is the only south yorkshire town with their own postcode.
    Rest being Sheffield.

    Completely different things imo. For a start you wouldn't chant anything about the war.

    Town? City don’t you know…

    Barnburgh and Harlington both have DN5 post codes, same as Bentley, Scawthorpe, Scawsby, Sprotbrough etc; it changes to S64 for Adwick on Dearne I think. Has to be a boundary somewhere I guess. Think a lot of Mexborough is S64. Certainly has Rotherham area code for the phone numbers.

    DN is the Doncaster post code but it’s a bit generous to describe it as such as it covers a bloody massive area - the DN post code covers a lot of north Lincolnshire too, Gainsborough, Scunthorpe, Immingham, Grimsby, Cleethorpes - plus into East Yorkshire - Goole, Howden, and even Nottinghamshire - Retford. There’s still a working airport with a DN post code as well whilst Humberside stays open. South side of the Humber bridge at Barton has a DN post code too.
