Address/Place Locator
Find the coordinates of any town, city, airport or UK postcode instantly, or search OpenStreetMap for a street, address or landmark, and copy them in the format you need.
About this tool
As you type, the tool searches a list built into the page: every UK and Irish town over 1,000 people, the world’s cities over 50,000, over 3,000 airports by their three-letter code, and UK postcode sectors. Those results appear instantly and don’t send anything anywhere. Add a country or nation to narrow it down, as in “Perth, Australia” or “Newport, Wales”.
For streets, full addresses, landmarks and businesses, press Search OpenStreetMap (or Enter). That sends your search to OpenStreetMap’s Nominatim service, which is free and run by volunteers, so the tool searches only when you ask and waits a second between searches, as the service requests. Each result shows decimal degrees, degrees-minutes-seconds and, in Great Britain, the OS grid reference, ready to copy.
