10. If you like history and cathedrals then you must visit York
It is probabably the best preserved medieval town in England.

You should also try and visit Bath which has magnificent Georgian architecture built upon a Masonic street plan.

My personal recommendation would be a short stay in Chichester in West Sussex. It has a fine Cathedral and would be an ideal place from which to visit the nearby Roman palace at Fishbourne; the village of Bosham where King Canute was supposed to have tried to have held back the sea; and the beautiful countryside around Pulborough. If you fancy a bit more excitement and variety you could also use this as a base to visit the town of Brighton, a place which has something to suit almost all tastes.
