Tbf, I’m British and have only ever heard it referred to as “Yorkshire Moors,” although North York Moors may well be the official name. Considering some of the bs answers/spellings they accept on here,I think there’s a case for this one being allowed?
I gotta spend more time in Wales. Missed two out of three there, but got the English ones. I just have trouble wrapping my Southern US ears around the Welsh accent for some reason.
I've now done a separate quiz with a map to test your knowledge of the UK's rivers. You can find it at Ultimate Rivers of the UK (with map). It's tricky to get them all but good luck with it!
Thanks for the non-constructive comment. I used an available map and didn't have one with the Scottish parks or I would have included them too. I'm fully aware of what the two are by the way and I will more than likely do another quiz when I have a suitable map. However, I've noticed that you "couldn't be bothered" either - how about making the effort to do a quiz which includes them yourself?
Well, Berney it would be a rather foolish endeavour as having covered 13 of the 15 parks, two really doesn't constitute a quiz.
However, apologies for the negative language, it isn't right when someone has gone out of their way to assemble a quiz that does enlighten non-UK residents to what is a part of the UK's heritage.
Just so you know, when you scroll over the area colored for Pembrokeshire Coast after the quiz is finished, it is the only park that doesn't display the name.
I didn't think I knew any of these, but I remember the Lake District from Pride and Prejudice, Snowdonia from Midsomer Murders, and Yorkshire Dales from All Creatures Great and Small - just didn't realize they were all national parks. Thanks for the learning moment. I would love to visit all of these someday, but it probably will never happen.
If you fancy testing your knowledge of UK towns and cities and the rivers that flow through them you might like to try this quiz of mine too UK Cities, Towns & their Rivers (with map).
Great quiz...I've been to all of them and it was tough! There are a couple of alternative names that would be really fair to include - 10 could just drop the second word, 7 could end in -bria.
Thanks for that. I did wonder about the answer for Number 10 but over 35% of people are getting it right so I'll leave it for now. The Park itself at Number 7 has never been known with the 'bria' ending, though the term was used to describe that part of the country in Anglo Saxon times. That area was larger than the present National park though.
Cheers Berney, nice idea with fantastic presentation.
Cairngorms and Loch Lomond &The Trossachs for your information.

I tried Breckon Beacons and Brekon Beacons!
