Southern United Kingdom (UK). Satellite image of the southern part of the UK. North is at top. This view is about 560 kilometres across, stretching from the south-western tip of Cornwall (lower left corner) to the Normandy coast in France (lower right corner). The English Channel (La Manche) separates southern England from north-western France. From south-north, the view covers about 450 kilometres, reaching up to the cities of Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield (grey areas across top). London, the capital city of the UK, is the large grey area at lower right, to the left of the Thames Estuary (light blue, centre right). The Bristol Channel (grey-blue, lower left) is below Wales (land area at upper left). Birmingham (grey, upper centre) is to the east of Wales.
