What's interesting about where you live?

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Tell us a few facts about where you live. Is your Town/City famous for anything?

Here's a few facts about where I live:

Stonehenge is a UNESCO world heritage site which stands testament to the ages and has a magnetism that has drawn people to them for centuries.

Salisbury cathedral has the oldest working clock in the world, from 1386, and it has the best-preserved of the four copies of the Magna Carta.

Stourhead is a country house and garden and Longleat Safari Park, an award-winning and hugely popular wildlife attraction.

Our little town is the birthplace of British motor racing. It was also the first seaside resort to allow mixed bathing! At the turn of the last century the group of rich influential land owners that built most of the town held infamous sex parties in their mansions! The head of witches Crowley also visited a local powerful coven in the town regularly which apparently still exists now...

You'd think it would be deviant central here but it's more recently known as God's Waiting Room!

Where do I start with York! Former Roman and Viking settlement, former capital of England, the minster and intact medieval city walls draw visitors from all over the world. It's regularly used as a filming location for TV shows and Hollywood films. Dame Judi Dench is from York and a street is named after her.

Notable places include;

Whittington Castle, said to be the home of the Holy Grail.

Whittington village said to be the home of Dick Whittington Lord Mayor of London

And Babbinswood said to be the place Babes in the Wood was set.

Close by is Pontcysyllte Aquaduct, built by Thomas Telford and stands 130ft above the river Dee. It is the longest and highest aquaduct in the UK and has UNESCO status.

I live in England's smallest city with its grand Cathedral and Bishops Palace. The Cathedral was built between 1176 and 1450.

The name Wells comes from 3 wells, 1 in the market place and the other 2 in the grounds of the Bishops Palace and Cathedral.

Mary Bignal Rand is the most famous person, a Gold Medalist in the 1964 Olympics.

The county I live in is rather lovely, very quaint. In a town not far from where I live is Alnwick, it's here there's a monument that stands on a hill a short walk from the town centre. As the story goes, the duke had told put the rent up for the locals to a rate that was deemed excessive. After the duke backed down, the locals erected a monument in his honour. Upon seeing it, the duke decided if the locals can pay for a monument then they can afford the extra rent.

If there is a moral to this story beyond not trusting hereditary rule I'd like to know
