Where is the 01253 area code?
01253 is the UK dialling code for Blackpool in Lancashire. Calls from abroad use +44 1253 — the international prefix +44 followed by the code without its leading zero.
Areas commonly served by 01253 include:
- Blackpool
- Lytham St Annes
- Fleetwood
- Poulton-le-Fylde
Area code boundaries follow the telephone exchange network rather than council borders, so a few addresses just outside Blackpool may fall under a neighbouring code. Ofcom publishes the definitive list of UK dialling codes at ofcom.org.uk.
