Hi Mixer,
At the moment there’s no direct way of doing this. However, Dynamite mentioned that he was looking at this as a project so watch this forum for news.
You need to use an external source, like http://www.streetmap.co.uk for the conversion. There are programs available but I think that they are all PC based.
Just for the record, ST 5609 7328 is N51:27:25 (51.456830), W2:37:59 (-2.633299).

Hi Mixer25,
On an Ordnance Survey map, each 100km square is given a two letter reference. 'ST' happens to be the two letter grid reference for an area of Wales.
See this link here for more information.
