I don't know the longitude and latitude of the following British towns. If you know or can find them, please add them!

(I'm working my way through the counties and have got to Essex so far).

Alternatively, if there's a place you'd like me to make a map for, please add it.

The preferred format is:


 * -01.58 53.07 Wirksworth

(meaning 53.07°N 1.58°W). This makes it easier to feed to my scripts for map generation.

Buckinghamshire

 * Marlow, Buckinghamshire
 * Try -0.46 51.34 --Phil | Talk 16:05, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)

Cambridgeshire
Lat: 52:13:23N (52.2231) Lon: 0:04:40W (-0.0778) Lupin 18:23, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Cambourne (in Cambridgeshire, not Cornwall)
 * or or . Why on earth do you want Lat & Long when we have a superb National Grid? -- RHaworth 18:13, 2005 Apr 23 (UTC)
 * Thanks! The reason for wanting lat/long is that my map-generating script understands them. In this case, multimap gives


 * Welney
 * 0.14 52.31 NB multimap says it's in Norfolk --Phil | Talk 16:14, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * Wisbech
 * 0.09 52.39 --Phil | Talk 16:14, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)

Cumbria

 * Roose
 * -3.19 54.11

Devon

 * Maristow
 * -4.150 lat=50.464

Essex

 * Ongar
 * 0.244 51.705

Oxfordshire

 * Thame (there seem to be 3 in Oxfordshire + one in Bucks - which is the article about?)


 * - -  - are all just bits of the River Thame
 * (on your list but SP 710 060 is better) - is the town. -- RWH

Norfolk

 * Walsingham - - The OS gazetteer has them under Great Walsingham and Little Walsingham (the larger of the two!) and is too thick to find them under Walsingham. RHaworth 05:35, 2005 May 11 (UTC)
