Southampton, Hull?

Well, it's do-able, because I did it, but I think a few people would expect Tynemouth to be the correct place, not North Shields. Then as Biggers points out, how do you decide the cut off for places like Southampton, Hull, Chester, Gravesend, Chepstow and so on, that are on salty tidal water, but haven't been included?

Chester and Chepstow are most definitely not on the coast, it may be tidal water, but its not the sea. Southampton Water is much more difficult, where does it stop being Southampton Water and start being the Solent, which is the sea? Still, top quiz, I struggled hard for just over half, and enjoyed it a lot.

Yeah I enjoyed this. I don't think you can say Hull or Chester are on the sea but Southampton is debatable.
