You might need BoundaryLine as well, depending what you mean by

So, CodePoint alone maps ONS ward codes to postcode. Combined with SNAC
http://www.ons.gov.uk/about-statistics/geography/products/geog-products-area/snac/
or the various lookup files:
http://www.ons.gov.uk/about-statistics/geography/products/geog-products-area/lookups/
that might be enough.
http://specification.sifinfo.org/Implementation/UK/1.0/ExternalCodeSets.html
has a nice list of all ward names etc. (part of the Schools
Interoperability Framework).
The NHSPD mentioned in this thread is a variant of the NSPD, which is
here:
http://www.ons.gov.uk/about-statistics/geography/products/geog-products-postcode/nspd/
Looks like the NHSPD only has 100m accuracy, the NSPD has 1m or 100m
accuracy; they have slightly different fields.
