It's a north/south line, so it passes through many different places in England.

I once went through an entire small-scale map of England and came up with a list

of about 30 towns that the Prime Meridian runs through, but I'm not going to do

that now.

The important spot ... the thing that actually defines where the Prime Meridian is ...

is the transit room of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, a suburb of London.

There's actually supposed to be a groove in the floor of that room that marks the

official meridian ... mostly for show and ceremony, now that we have the GPS.
