	These UK quizzes just show me how many names New England stole. "Sutton" added to the list.

	"Greenwich" as well.

	took me 4 minutes and 40 seconds. Not bad.

	There are quite a few other Suttons around the UK. It means "southern settlement".

	There are only 32 London boroughs plus the City of London, which is a local authority "sui generis".

	Surely needing to include the "Upon Thames" for Kingston and Richmond is a little unnecessary. I've spent a fair time in both boroughs, and they are never referred to as such in London.

Comment below threshold: show it

	clearly the united states dominates this website, as no one gets these right

	Not even going through the monopoly properties or the London-based football teams helped much!

	i live in london (bexley) and i only got 11/33!!!

	fatcat2:	Aug 4th, 2009 at 20:53 GMT	3 points
	Myself a London dweller, and only 7/33. But then, I forgot that Wimbledon (yay!) Raynes Park and Putney are all part of Merton.

	Boomhauer:	Aug 11th, 2009 at 22:50 GMT	2 points
	Leeds and got 21

	Up to 20 now-I have had several tries.

	I'm from Hull (north east England) and I got 5 :S. They should do a name all the English city quiz. Also, there's a sutton bourough in Hull.

	15/33 not too bad, would have been 17 if it weren't for the "upon thames" bit in richmond and kingston

	DrRichie:	Sep 22nd, 2009 at 12:27 GMT	3 points
	shouldn't need the upon Thames bit. I thought I'd done all the Fulham Chelsea and Hammersmith combinations possible ho hum.

	kazasik12:	Sep 23rd, 2009 at 19:56 GMT	1 point
	33/33 pretty good considering im a brummie:P

	tedmaul:	Sep 24th, 2009 at 21:10 GMT	4 points
	putney isn't in merton, its in wandsworth

	soupcon:	Nov 19th, 2009 at 21:05 GMT	3 points
	Pah. I put in Richmond, Dagenham, Barking, Fulham and Hammersmith and got nothing for them. That's a bit tight - especially for Richmond. Nevertheless I'm pretty happy with 16/33.

	ShadowKing:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 15:29 GMT	3 points
	This should accept 'Kingston' rather than requiring the whole 'Kingston on Thames'.

	QXYZ:	Dec 27th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	2 points
	I put in "City" for city of London which is why I got 0 right.

	bmaxxx:	Apr 19th, 2010 at 23:52 GMT	-3 points
	< in the States trying to see if EPL club names fit. Should have gotten credit for Fulham and Chelsea, and I thought for sure that Tottenham was a borough.

	Most of the boroughs listed are not actually part of London. For instance, the boroughs of Newham, Waltham Forest, Redbridge, Barking & Dagenham and Havering are part of the historic county of Essex. Anyone want to read about their histories would have a fruitless search in the Victoria County History of London; they would need to read volumes four to seven of the Victoria County History of Essex.

	@fatcat2 putney is in wandsworth. My results show how little I know of the city I live in, only got 14, north london is another world to me.

	Surprised no-one else has said 'Way too much time'.

	DunKhan:	Aug 1st, 2011 at 18:39 GMT	3 points
	A bit too stringent on the names, a bit too generous with the time.

	Season:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 17:08 GMT	1 point
	All 33 in 4 minutes and 44 seconds. Not bad to say I come from Nottingham.

	suarez:	Jan 25th, 2012 at 00:45 GMT	1 point
	I sat here typing Fulham, Chelsea, Tottenham, West Ham, Arsenal, QPR, Millwall, etc until I realized it was Boroughs not teams 8\|
