An estimated 10million clueless Brits are unaware that Buckingham Palace or Big Ben are in London. A study revealed that one in seven (15%) were unaware that the nation's most beloved landmarks were in the capital, while almost half (46%) admitted to having no idea where Stonehenge was.
One in ten of the 2,000 UK adults surveyed in the Jackpotjoy study didn't know that Tower Bridge is in London either. The gaming site also discovered that more than 22,500 people ask Google where the UK’s top landmarks can be found each month – totalling a staggering 270,000 searches a year.
To highlight just how much the nation may need to brush up on its geography knowledge, an alternative map of the UK was drawn up based on wrong answers. The queen’s most famous residence, Buckingham Palace, was shifted up north to England’s former Viking capital, York, in this new map.
