South-East England
South-East England, satellite image. North is at top. This view is about 280 kilometres across, stretching from Bristol (grey area, centre left) to the eastern coast of Kent (far right). London, the capital city of the UK, is the large grey area at centre right, to the left of the Thames Estuary (light blue). From south-north, the view covers about 210 kilometres, from the Isle of Wight (lower left) to Northampton (left of top centre). Other geographical features seen include part of the Severn Estuary (grey-blue, above Bristol) and the urbanised stretches of the south coast from Bournemouth in the west to Brighton in the east. Outside the cities, a patchwork of fields is seen covering much of the countryside
