The EH postcode area, also known as the Edinburgh postcode area,[2] is a group of 55 postcode districts for post towns: Armadale, Balerno, Bathgate, Bo'ness, Bonnyrigg, Broxburn, Currie, Dalkeith, Dunbar, East Linton, Edinburgh, Gorebridge, Gullane, Haddington, Heriot, Humbie, Innerleithen, Juniper Green, Kirkliston, Kirknewton, Lasswade, Linlithgow, Livingston, Loanhead, Longniddry, Musselburgh, Newbridge, North Berwick, Ormiston, Pathhead, Peebles, Penicuik, Prestonpans, Rosewell, Roslin, South Queensferry, Tranent, Walkerburn, West Calder and West Linton in Scotland.
It replaced a system of postal district numbers introduced in 1935, with the postcode incorporating the old one or two-digit district number for example, "45, York Place, Edinburgh, 1"[3] became ""45 York Place, Edinburgh EH1 3HP".[4]
