I only know of places in Manchester, but the ones I can think of off the
top of my head:

MV Communications - www.mv.com - I've had a colocated machine there in
the past, and was happy with their connectivity, uptime, and building
access. This was years ago, but I haven't heard anything bad about them.
Of the companies in the area that I know of, they were the most
expensive for my needs, starting a $250/mo for 512Kbps average bw.

G4 Communications - www.g4.net - I have no first hand experience with
their colo, but I've heard it's good. I was at one time quoted a price
around half of MV's rate, with double the bandwidth.

Spectra Access - www.spectraaccess.com - I am currently colocated here.
As such, I can't divulge too much info due to NDA type stuff. I have had
some connectivity issues with them in the past, including unannounced
switch outages. They are fairly inexpensive though.
