Entrants should read this bit very carefully:
Because we have recently been a target for fraudulent entries this month’s question is in two parts:
The first part is to tell us which Shakespeare play you like best and why (there is no right or wrong answer to this but it may help us produce a great feature for you in the future!
Then answer the following question
William Shakespeare was married to Anne Hathaway - where is Anne Hathaway's cottage?
- Ottery?
- Shottery?
- Pottery?
Have a look at the History.uk.com listings search to find the answer.
HINT: Try entering 'Shakespeare' in the exact word search
Send an email with the correct answers (remember we are looking for two answers here) to: competition@history.uk.com by June 1st to be entered into the prize draw.
