Enter our April Where in the World contest and win £30 ! - Friday's question

Closes on 3rd of April 2026

You could win a £30 cash prize in our April Where in the World contest.

We will be asking you to name different locations in the world each day between now and the end of the month.

We provide a picture clue which might be cryptic in addition to the written clues.

At the end of each day's contest we will pick the winner from all correct answers received and so the winner is not necessarily the first entrant with the answer. The overall winner of the £30 cash prize at the end of the competition will be the person who has the most individual wins and in the event of a tie a draw will be held to determine the winner of the £30 cash prize.

We will give you regular updates of the daily contest winners so you can see who is leading the competition.



Only one entry per day is allowed, otherwise your entry will not count.

The town is the setting for a short story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle that was published in The Strand Magazine in the 1890s. What is the name of the town ?
