CO4 0BN is a safe, established residential area on St Annes Road, 1.3km from Myland Hall Chase in Colchester. Administratively it sits within St Anne's and St John's ward and the Colchester constituency.

Within the CO4 district, this postcode is characterised by a high-density area of young ethnic minority families, mostly in flats.
