What is the nearest UK city to Dublin?

Question

As the crow flys and how far?

Answer 1

Newry Definately!

Answer 2

Liverpool, about 130 miles

Answer 3

In the sense of a town that has a cathedral, then I'd say Bangor, Gwynedd, 80 miles as the crow flies according to Google Earth. St Asaph in Denbighshire also has a cathedral and is 122 miles from Dublin.

And if you're being literal in demanding "England" and ignoring Wales, then Chester is right on the Welsh border at 139 miles is about the same distance as Liverpool, 132 miles.

Answer 4

i would go with belfast. Maybe St Davids in south wales.

Answer 5

Probably Newry in Northern Ireland?

Answer 6

It would be Newry City in Co.Down. Its around 100 kilometers and takes around an hour to drive.
