This is only true for the Northern Hemisphere, in the Southern Hemisphere the further south you go it gets colder.

The further from the Equator you are, the lower the sun will be in the sky at noon which means it's light has to pass through more ass thickness of Earth's atmosphere. This is why the temperatures near the North and South poles are generally colder than the areas around the equator.

Does water temperature get warmer or colder the further down you go?

Usually, water temperature gets colder the further down you go in the ocean. This is because sunlight penetrates the surface layers, warming the water there, but not as much light reaches the deeper layers. This creates a temperature gradient with warmer water at the surface and colder water at depth.

Is South England or North England colder?

North England is colder, because England is in the Northern Hemisphere, and in the Northern Hemisphere, the further north you go the colder the weather is because if you do you will get closer to the North Pole, or Arctic if you prefer. If England was in the Southern Hemisphere, all of this writing would be the opposite. I also used to think that the Arctic and Antarctica were just two freezing cold places right next to each other, but they're opposite parts of the world. Antarctica's colder though, but they're still both freezing cold. I live in South England
