Where 0151 reaches.
0151 is shared by Liverpool and the Wirral side of the Mersey. Numbers look like 0151 496 0123.
- Liverpool
- Bootle
- Birkenhead
- Wallasey
- Huyton
0151 replaced Liverpool's old 051 code on PhONEday, 16 April 1995. Local numbers after 0151 are seven digits.
Phone exchange areas don't follow council boundaries exactly, so a few places near the edges use a different code.
Example: A hair salon in Liverpool
The salon's 0151 number rings the front desk phone during opening hours. When the stylists are with clients and nobody can answer, callers leave a message that is emailed with a transcription, so a booking request can be read and returned between appointments.
