+ | |||
+ | The United Kingdom is a country in northwest Europe. It includes the British Crown Dependencies of the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. There are 73 graticules, some of which are shared with the Republic of Ireland. The [[Canterbury, United Kingdom| Canterbury]] graticule includes about 100 square metres of a beach in France -- but only at low tide. | ||
+ | |||
+ | History and UK law make geohashing particularly interesting and often quite easy. The country is covered with a network of public footpaths and bridleways guaranteeing public access. Hashpoints are rarely far from a road or one of these paths. Most of the terrain is easy but there are more extreme mountain, moor and marine areas where geohashing is less of a walk in the park. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Bad weather preventing expeditions is unusual. The mountains of Scotland, Wales and the English Lake District can be more dangerous with fog, snow, wind and wind chill. Traffic congestion is much more likely to disrupt plans! | ||

− | + | This is a map of all graticules containing parts of the '''''United Kingdom''' of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and its '''Overseas Territories''' and '''Crown Dependencies'''''. The United Kingdom consists of the constituent countries of [[England]], [[Wales]], [[Scotland]], and [[Northern Ireland]]; additionally it has responsibility for 13 British Overseas Territories and 3 Crown Dependencies. | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | The ''United Kingdom'' borders [[Ireland]]; additionally its graticules border [[France]]. In addition, the ''British Overseas Territories'' border [[Cyprus]] and [[Spain]], additionally, its graticules border Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, [[Netherlands]], and the [[United States]], as well as the waters of the Dominican Republic, [[Morocco]], and Saint Kitts and Nevis. | |

If the first successful expedition was not in the United Kingdom, the first successful expedition in the United Kingdom and the name of that geohasher would also be given, unless there has not been a successful expedition in the United Kingdom yet. | |

UK hashpoints today - This link relies on Google Earth or other applications that understand the KML format.
The United Kingdom is a country in northwest Europe. It includes the British Crown Dependencies of the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. There are 73 graticules, some of which are shared with the Republic of Ireland. The Canterbury graticule includes about 100 square metres of a beach in France -- but only at low tide.
History and UK law make geohashing particularly interesting and often quite easy. The country is covered with a network of public footpaths and bridleways guaranteeing public access. Hashpoints are rarely far from a road or one of these paths. Most of the terrain is easy but there are more extreme mountain, moor and marine areas where geohashing is less of a walk in the park.
Bad weather preventing expeditions is unusual. The mountains of Scotland, Wales and the English Lake District can be more dangerous with fog, snow, wind and wind chill. Traffic congestion is much more likely to disrupt plans!
Events
All geohashers are cordially invited to the 10th anniversary 2018 geohashing day meetup in the Cambridge UK graticule.
- 21 May 2018 (Mon): An excellent celebration of Geohashing Day will take place at 4pm local time at a place yet to be determined.
- 26 May 2018 (Sat): is Mouse Over Day and might be more convenient so the invitation applies to this day too.
- GPS jam planned around the island of Benbecula during the month of July 2016 should make geohashing considerably more challenging.
Map

Geohashers
See Category:Geohashers in the UK
Expeditions
There have been far too many expeditions in the UK to individually list here -- see the graticule pages themselves for lists of expeditions in each area.
Graticules
Note: This map is not guaranteed to be complete or accurate, or contain all successful hashes done in this graticule.
This is a map of all graticules containing parts of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and its Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies. The United Kingdom consists of the constituent countries of England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland; additionally it has responsibility for 13 British Overseas Territories and 3 Crown Dependencies.
The United Kingdom borders Ireland; additionally its graticules border France. In addition, the British Overseas Territories border Cyprus and Spain, additionally, its graticules border Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Netherlands, and the United States, as well as the waters of the Dominican Republic, Morocco, and Saint Kitts and Nevis.
Not all graticules in the United Kingdom and its dependencies have been visited, there are still locked graticules, which are colored orange. If a graticule was visited, it is colored green, unless it has never been visited when the geohash was in the United Kingdom, in which case the graticule is colored blue.
The graticule gives the name of the first geohasher in that graticule and a link to the first successful expedition. If the first successful expedition was not in the United Kingdom, the first successful expedition in the United Kingdom and the name of that geohasher would also be given, unless there has not been a successful expedition in the United Kingdom yet.
