In some countries, Google AJAX Local Search has a "landmark" category.
In the UK it doesn't: the nearest I can think of that works is 
"tourist".

For example, try typing "category:landmark" into
   http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/mapsearch/index.html

Even then, you'll only get results that are in some sense "businesses". 
You won't get natural features.

Other than that, I think you really do need a database of "landmarks".
