Default Deleting 3 Text characters from the right

Anyone know how to trim a postcode of variable length, sometimes 5, 6 or 7
characters in length to remove the last 3 characters on the right hand side
of the cell? The postcode is displayed with any gaps or marks and the
separator will varying but it is always the last 3 characters that are
superfluous.

Thanks
