Where is the 01978 area code?
01978 is the UK dialling code for Wrexham in Wales. Calls from abroad use +44 1978 — the international prefix +44 followed by the code without its leading zero.
Areas commonly served by 01978 include:
- Wrexham
- Rhosllanerchrugog
- Chirk
- Gresford
Area code boundaries follow the telephone exchange network rather than council borders, so a few addresses just outside Wrexham may fall under a neighbouring code. Ofcom publishes the definitive list of UK dialling codes at ofcom.org.uk.
