Here's York, one of our older cities. These old Roman cities tend to look quite similar, they often have a cathedral and city walls and became important centres of commerce when they were rebuilt after the Dark Ages.
Canterbury is a good example - the agrarian Jutes left it to rot, it was only latter when the Anglo-Saxons formed larger kingdoms that it became important again.

Lancaster is another old city - "caster", "chester" and "cester" almost always denote old Roman towns, it is what the Anglo-Saxons named them.
I like Lancaster's architecture.
Random fact - there are more Monkey Puzzle trees (Arucaria araucana) in Britain than in their native Araucania, Chile where they are endangered. They're quite common here, they're often found in parks, at garden centres or in the gardens of older houses. The Victorians loved them and Cedars.
Piemont....or Scotland?
