• All the latest data is used to map Britain’s preoccupations and quirks – from favourite crisp flavours 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 flavour is favourite 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? Show more
