Which one of the following fishing banks is located off the coast of the United Kingdom?

The Dogger Bank is a prominent sandbank located in the North Sea, situated off the east coast of England and the United Kingdom [2]. It is recognized as the largest sandbank in UK waters and extends into Dutch and German territories [2]. Historically and geographically, it is one of the most productive fishing grounds in the world, known for species such as cod and herring [2]. In contrast, the Grand Banks are located off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada, in the North-Western Atlantic [1]. The Great Fisher Bank is also in the North Sea but is typically associated with the central region further from the UK coast than Dogger Bank. Reed Bank is located in the South China Sea. Therefore, Dogger Bank is the correct fishing bank located off the UK coast.
