Utterly British Maps

AUTHOR McKenzie, Helen
PUBLISHER Collins (03/24/2026)
PRODUCT TYPE Hardcover (Hardcover)

Description
All the latest data is used to map Britain's preoccupations and quirks - from favorite crisp flavors to morris dancers, from oldest pubs to most haunted places.
A brilliantly dip-inable and sharable little book. Packed with information too good to keep to yourself.
Supported by the National Trust, who know a thing or two about Britishness.

A fun and fascinating little book that uses the latest data to map everything that is very British. You'll find answers to important questions like:

  • Where in Britain has the most roundabouts? The longest pier? The most days of rain? The most trainspotters? The most robins? The silliest placenames? The most garden centres?
  • What crisp flavor is favorite in Manchester?
  • How do people in Devon say 'Scone'?
  • Which countries give us 'nil points' most often in Eurovision? (Holland, is it something we said?)
  • Where exactly are German Bight and Cromarty?
