Capital of uk

Situated on the River Avon, Bristol is a city in the South West of England with a population of around half a million people. It is known for its vibrant culture, lively music scene, and beautiful harbor. According to the latest crime statistics, the city has some of the lowest rates of violent crime and burglary in the country, and the overall crime rate has been steadily declining. This has helped to make Bristol a safe and welcoming place to live, work, and visit Despite the (fictional) events of Irvine Welsh’s Trainspotting taking place in the Scottish capital, a whopping 82% of those that live in the city claim to feel safe there and would recommend the place as safe to others. A cultural hub and tourist hotspot, the student population is high and the crime rate is low. Now let’s get into the more interesting UK cities. Those that are deemed the most dangerous places to live by the people that know them best… Those that actually live there. Think of Sheffield and what comes to mind? Steel, Snooker and Sean Bean, perhaps. Maybe Pulp or The Full Monty, at a push. What you might not think of is crime. And you’d be right not to. Only this South Yorkshire city isn’t exactly rife with serious violent crime. What it does have, however, is antisocial crime. And lots of it. More than 575,000 people call Sheffield home. With a large bustling city centre and two huge universities, nightlife is plentiful there. As is the kind of antisocial behaviour you might attach to that. In f...

Winchester, town and city (district), in the central part of the administrative and historic county of The town lies in the valley of the River Itchen. Although few traces of the ancient Venta Belgarum remain, its central position in the Winchester has grown only modestly in modern times. It remains an important agricultural market centre, and its administrative functions as the long-established county town have grown. There is little manufacturing. The residential attractiveness of Winchester has brought commuters and retired persons in increasing numbers.

Last Updated on 10th November 2021 by People talk of a north-south divide in Britain, but it was once even more serious than it is now It’s all a matter of power and geography. The Danes had defeated the old Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of Northumbria, East Anglia and Mercia. If the Danes had beaten Alfred of Wessex too, maybe the capital of Britain would have been York. Or Copenhagen. Without Alfred, there would not only have been no England but, also, no English-speaking world. Alfred’s power-base was manifestly in the south of England and by the time he died the components of an organised, unified, state were pretty much in place. London was also the largest trading settlement in the whole of Britain. The original Saxon invaders, suspicious of urban areas, had for the most part ignored the old Roman town, underneath the present City of London, but by the 8 th century had developed an important cosmopolitan trading centre, Lundenwic, immediately to the west of it. It offered a sheltered anchorage, handy for the European mainland, and its position as a crossing point over the barrier of the Thames at London Bridge also gave it a unique position in north-south communications. The Saxons have left their memory behind in names like Aldwych (old town) and Strand (beach). The Danes attacked London in 842, again in 851 – and by 871 were in occupation. Despite the fact that, technically, Lundenwic was in the Kingdom of Mercia, Alfred thought it vital enough to re-take the city in 886 an...
