You need to create a new module and add etc/zip_codes.xml with the following:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Directory:etc/zip_codes.xsd">
    <zip countryCode="GB">
        <codes>
            <code id="pattern_1" active="true" example="AB12 3CD">^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{2}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_2" active="true" example="A1B 2CD">^[a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_3" active="true" example="AB1 2CD">^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_4" active="true" example="AB1C 2DF">^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_5" active="true" example="A12 3BC">^[a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{2}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_6" active="true" example="A1 2BC">^[a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
        </codes>
    </zip>
</config>

These are pretty the same patterns to vendor/magento/module-directory/etc zip_codes.xml exclude a space is a mandatory now.

Also, you need to add Magento_Directory sequence into etc/module.xml file.

Create app/code/Jt/Postcodespace/registration.php

<?php

use Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar;

ComponentRegistrar::register(
    ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
    'Jt_Postcodespace',
    __DIR__
);

Create app/code/Jt/Postcodespace/etc/module.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="Jt_Postcodespace" setup_version="1.0.0">
        <sequence>
            <module name="Magento_Directory" />
        </sequence>
    </module>
</config>

Create app/code/Jt/Postcodespace/etc/zip_codes.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Directory:etc/zip_codes.xsd">
    <zip countryCode="GB">
        <codes>
            <code id="pattern_1" active="true" example="AB12 3CD">^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{2}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_2" active="true" example="A1B 2CD">^[a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_3" active="true" example="AB1 2CD">^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_4" active="true" example="AB1C 2DF">^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_5" active="true" example="A12 3BC">^[a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{2}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
            <code id="pattern_6" active="true" example="A1 2BC">^[a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{1}\s[0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2}$</code>
        </codes>
    </zip>
</config>

After that run in the app root dir in console:

php bin/magento setup:upgrade
