I need to measure the distance using 2 postcodes (UK)

How can that be done?

1. Get latitude & longitude corresponding to the postcodes:

2. http://jsp.vs19.net/lr/sphere-distance.php

3. In return for me having just spent some 30 seconds on google, let us know
the error in distance between treating the Earth as a sphere and treating it
as flat for postcode areas at opposite ends of the UK

Sorry can't answer your question,

The link you gave me doesn't work (try downloading the file) I also think
that there is no nearly enough post codes

However, this link seems good:
