How we work this out

We take every active railway, Underground, metro and tram station, and every active bus stop, from the Department for Transport's National Public Transport Access Nodes (NaPTAN, read 17 October 2026).

For a postcode we measure the straight line from its centre point, as ONS gives it, to each station, and list the three nearest railway stations within 20 km, any Underground, metro or tram station within 3 km, and how many bus stops are within 400 metres.

Is that how far I would walk?

No: a straight line is shorter than any route. A river, a railway or a main road between you and the station can make the walk much longer.

How often do trains run?

The register lists where stations and stops are, not how often anything calls there. National Rail Enquiries and each operator have timetables.

House prices by postcode What homes sold for in a postcode's sector over the last 12 months, from HM Land Registry.
