I received my marked quiz sheet back today. I scored 93 out of the possible 100. I was so certain that I had done better than that so was very disappointed.
20 Place of worship for longest golf club (10) .
I put CHURCHWOOD for that but the correct answer was WOODCHURCH. Both are places in GB. I almost cried!!!!
Will I bother with this quiz for yet another year? Of course I will because I'm a glutton for punishment!
The way the clue has been worded would suggest to me that your answer is the correct one. Perhaps they hadn't realised there is a Churchwood but that's no consolation to you of course.Better luck next year!
I agree with the setter. A 'wood-church' is a place of worship for use by a golf club, while a 'church-wood' would be a golf club for use in a place of worship. The normal sequence for a compound noun is qualifier first, then the object which has that quality.
