Probably the easiest way to do local lookups right now is OpenlyLocal's
postcode lookup (in html, xml or json):

An accurate postcode search (AFAIK) isn't free so to limit our costs we
haven't done it. Not to say we wouldn't if we found a way though..
Ordnance Survey released Great British postcode data (mapping postcode
-> co-ordinates) for free under an attribution licence in April.
Services using this already exist such as the (slightly misnamed)
uk-postcodes.com, which you could use or roll your own lookup. I hope
to be able to open up mySociety's along with an upgrade to our entire
area geometry handling in the future.
