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

Closes on 25th of June 2025

You could win a £30 cash prize in our June 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, used to have an Elizabethan theatre and the town continues to promote its connections to William Shakespeare. The town has a school which was originally founded in the 16th century and whose alumni include a musician who sadly died very young in Hamburg. The town's football club was founded in the 1880s and its name derives from a large local employer at that time. The team won promotion in the 2023/24 season to the league they currently play in. What is the name of the town ?
