How the Radius Distance Tool Works

This tool draws a circle on a Google Map centred on any UK postcode. Simply enter your postcode and choose a radius in miles. The tool will geocode your postcode to find its exact coordinates, then draw a circle showing the area covered.

The radius is measured as the crow flies (straight-line distance), not by road. This means the actual driving distance to the edge of the circle may be slightly further than the radius shown, depending on the road network in your area.

Common uses include checking school catchment areas, estimating delivery zones, planning how far you could walk or cycle, or simply exploring what is within a certain distance of your home or workplace.

You might also find our Halfway Meeting Point Calculator useful for finding a fair place to meet, or our Multi-Stop Route Planner for planning road trips with optimised stop ordering.
