    Taking the M4, and bypassing Reading and Swansea (no brainer!), we are talking 455 miles.

    14.1 miles.

    Different question, but what is the nearest English league ground to where you were born? (This could be a particularly good challenge for those born abroad.)

    6.5 miles (Selhurst Park)
    (Plough Lane was closer at 5.3 miles)

    About 600 miles, and probably Liverpool, or Wrexham or Blackpool.

    Tralee Co Kerry Ireland in the Irish Republic which I would think is about 500 miles away from L. R. but I lived in the Bush for 21 years.
