You should have the figures with N/S and E/W

eg

00.1 W
51.5 N

Is London roughly (?)

You'll get the information if your in the UK using the multimap.co.uk website .... just enter your Postcode

Hi I noticed this is given in the format

Lat: 54:28:31N (54.47528)
Lon: 6:19:45W (-6.32926)
do we use the first numbers or the ones in brackets.

I'd go with:

54.28 N
06.19 W

try sticking a Zero in front of the 52 - I just checked you can get longtitude and lattitude with 3 digits
