0114

0114 is the national dialling code for Sheffield in the United Kingdom. The area it serves includes almost all of the City of Sheffield and some adjacent areas. When STD codes were first introduced, Sheffield was assigned 0742. The current 0114 code became active as part of PhONEday on 16 April 1995. All subscriber numbers within the area code consist of seven digits. The code is used at several telephone exchanges as part a linked numbering scheme. In common with all other British area codes the initial '0' is a trunk prefix that is not required when dialling Sheffield from abroad.
