Scrabble Capital
British towns and villages ranked in order of Scrabble word score
Friday the 8th of December 2017
In response to Brett Smitheram's call to
make Croydon the "Scrabble capital"
of the United Kingdom, an attempt to calculate the current Scrabble capital of the United Kingdom, on the basis of highest word score.
The attempt proves inconclusive.
(The rankings below include everything from this list
which scores 30 points or higher, omitting anything with spaces or hyphens. And yes, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch would
score 110, but doesn't fit on a Scrabble board.)
