Many of us love to travel around England, and might even think we know it all about the UK as a whole. But when it comes to the extremely niche knowledge of England’s counties, it’s time to ask: do you know as much as you think you do?
P.S. This quiz is based on the 48 ceremonial counties of England, as opposed to the 39 historic counties, unless we state otherwise in the question. Good luck!
