We noticed a VisitEngland report on the top ‘towns’ in England. The list was generated from visitor stats and is pretty much in line with what one would expect. First up, London and then Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Blackpool, York, Scarborough, Newcastle upon Tyne and, finally, Liverpool. Would have expected Bath to be in there too but hey-ho.
However, if you park the stats to one side, there are dozens of other candidates for the title of ‘Top Town’. We’ve collected some candidates across the UK here (towns, literally) and here (cities).
We’d love other suggestions too. As ever, pls post this blog or @picturetheuk on Twitter.
