Study identifies town with biggest rise in sexual activity

An interactive map has revealed that Andover is the UK’s raunchiest place. The map was created by adult toy company Lovehoney and discovered that residents of the Hampshire town had the most sex during the coronavirus lockdown.

Lovehoney analysed 1,500 towns and cities across Britain and revealed that people from Tidworth in Wiltshire and Cornhill-upon-Tweed in Northumberland were also busy between the sheets.

At the other end of the scale, the town of Nelson in Lancashire was at the bottom of the raunchy list, with Smethwick in the West Midlands and Thornton Heath in Surrey also among the least sexy places.

A Lovehoney spokesperson said: “Andover in Hampshire is the UK’s sexiest place with the biggest rise in sexual activity over the past year.

“We have seen a huge surge in activity as couples use sex as a stress-buster to escape the pressures of the pandemic.

“All our research shows that couples with great sex lives enjoy higher overall levels of happiness.”
