The Beginning of the 01743 Area Code

Prior to the PhONEday event in April 1995, the area code was 0743 and the historic mnemonic code was SH3, with the first two characters taken from the letters S and H in SHrewsbury. On an old rotary dial telephone, this code would have been entered by dialling the numbers 7, 4, and 3.
