I went to St Margaret’s Bay for a few days. Lovely place. Right up your street. Lots of history and an old phone box! It hadn’t been turned into a defibrillator either! It was a local library!
Thing is with Kent it's all out the way, I like areas that are part of my commute back home. Maybe next year...presuming things haven't got sour by next year.
William - just to remind you if you could please upload photos of the historical boards in the church at Mildenhall, Suffolk as promised. I remembered! Thanks
Sorry to bring it up, but Derby was described as 'rundown and a dump' and voted the worst place to visit out of 62 cities according to the Metro. This part of the city was OK to look at though, and the rural canal area was attractive. Even if it isn't a great city any more for 'diverse reasons' at least it's got the Peak District nearby. Wonder if Spondon station's still staffed by 'tached white working-class blokes in dapper uniforms?
It's ok, it has it's problems like anywhere. There are a lot of nice suburbs and rural villages near by but the City centre isn't great. Mainly due to the Intu shopping centre which sucked all the business of the high street along with the closure of the eagle market.
@@wanderingwilliam5031 Yes, even in terrible London districts there can be attractive pre-modern quality architecture and the parks and gardens. Increasing populations of larger towns/cities and importing cultures rarely makes them better places for white British folk to live. I used to enjoy bus trips to Croydon as a kid (was a great record shop there) and it has beautiful historic buildings, trams and beautiful countryside around. Now it's far noisier, busier and no longer a mainly-white working class town. Not nice to visit recently -- I was relieved to leave.
