The graticule in Mid East contains Northampon, Peterborough and Bedford. It extends into Cambridgeshire as far as Royston, goes as far West as Buckingham, but not as far as Leicester or Nottinham. It goes as far South as just below Milton Keynes and contains Grantham and Boston at the top.

The graticule has boundaries from 53° to 52° latitude, and -1° to 0° longitude. When following the XKCD geohashing algorithm, append the fractional hash part to 52° latitude and -0° longitude. Note the use of negative zero.
