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

Closes on 29th of August 2026

You could win a £30 cash prize in our August 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.

Question:
This town, which has a connection with the picture, was often visited by an English composer who died in the 1930s. The town was the birthplace in the 18th century of a businessman who married a daughter of a Founding Father of the United States. In the town is a museum which is normally open today between 11am and 4pm. Not to visit it would be an act of sheer folly. What is the name of the town ?
