UK voters are heading to the polls for the General Election, casting their votes in some rather unusual locations.
While schools and garden centres are common polling places, some voters will be marking their ballots in a caravan, a nameless pub, a windmill, and even a used car sales lot.
MPs will be elected across England, while Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and polling stations will remain open until 10pm on Thursday.
It's important to note that British voters are not directly electing a new leader on Thursday. Under the UK's parliamentary system, voters select their local representatives for the House of Commons.
On Thursday, there are 650 parliamentary seats up for grabs in the House of Commons.
For a single party to secure an outright majority in the Commons, it would need to win at least 326 seats - more than half of those available. The party that achieves this gets to form the next government, with its leader becoming the Prime Minister.
Many people will simply vote in their nearest village hall, church or even nursery. The voters of Hove will cast their ballots in a windmill.
