England's Greatest Place?


According to the Royal Town Planning Institute is......

the Liverpool Waterfront which is, of course, a UNESCO world heritage site, one of 25 in the UK.

Sorry, you all know this already as it was announced in December but I was asleep. The Sunday Times Best Places To Live In Britain (13 and 20 March) noted the redeveloping docklands area as one of Merseyside's hottest addresses. Nevertheless, this year they picked Winchester as the best place to live in Britain.

Of course England's "Great Places" and the best place to live are different things entirely.

The shortlist of 10 included the Peak District (see http://www.rtpi.org.uk/briefing-room/news-releases/2015/october/10-greatest-places-in-england-announced/)
