The theoretical midpoint is 45 degrees North. The UK lies mostly at 55 degrees North, making it closer to the North Pole than it is to the Equator. That explains some of the weather.
Yes, the United Kingdom lies in temperate latitudes, specifically between approximately 50 and 60 degrees north latitude. This places it roughly halfway between the equator and the North Pole. The temperate latitudes generally experience four distinct seasons with moderate temperatures and precipitation throughout the year.
Hi Britain is located to the north of the equator.
The latitude of St. Petersburg located in Russia is 59.95 degrees north. The latitude of New York City in New York is 42.35 degrees north. The latitude line increases in numbers the further away it gets from the equator. This means that St. Petersburg Russia is closer to the North Pole.
There are 20,013.8 kilometers (12,436 miles) between the North and South Pole.

More or less. The largest island of the UK - Great Britain - sits between 50 and 59 degrees north of the equator. Therefore - its just north of the half-way point (45 degrees) between the equator and the north pole.
Hi Britain is located to the north of the equator.
Birmingham, UK is 52°28′59″ north of the equator.
NO!

If you travel due north from the UK - the first land mass you come to is the Arctic ice at the north pole !
There are 20,013.8 kilometers (12,436 miles) between the North and South Pole.
Approximatey 9,656 kilometers.
Ireland is in the Northern Hemisphere (being north of the Equator), and is also in the western hemisphere (being to the west of the Prime Meridian, the line of zero longitude that runs from pole to pole and passes through London, UK)
The equator is the imaginary central line that runs east and west along the earth, whereas, the prime meridian runs north and south. If we follow the equator we must move to the east and then north to arrive at the United Kingdom.Therefore the U.K. is located northeast from the equator.
