Endless things to see and do

London is usually the destination for most of the tourists to England.
We have been blessed to have spent time in London and we have also traveled through the countryside.
Our first time in London was in 1989 and all my pictures were on slides. I had them put on CD's and have been disappointed with the quality of the pictures. Our second visit was in 1998.

The Salisbury Plain

Stonehenge

The Salisbury area has so many things to see! Even though Stonehenge seems to be the most popular stone display, there are quite a few of these sprinkled around the countryside.

The Roman coast-to-coast defense "Hadrian's Wall"

Hadrian's Wall

In the Northumberland area of England there are places to inspect what is left of Hadrian's Wall.
We could not find one speck of stone or mortar that was loose.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Historical places are easily accessible
Cons:It would take years and years to see it all
In a nutshell:A great place steeped in history

Nice page of England. You have been all over. Bring back memories of Stonehenge, Salisbury, Bath and London for me. Thanks for sharing. SL :)

Looks like you had a great time tripping around England. A great overview of both well- and lesser-known places to visit - some (Windsor, Eton, Marlow) my old stamping grounds, others (Chester, Cambridge, York) great favourites. Nicely done. leyle

Nice trip you had in England. Been to some of these places but not all, so opportunity to get ideas for another visit. Thanks.

Great England page. I have been to many of these places so enjoyed seeing them through your eyes. But I haven't been to Belvoir Castle or St. John the Bapt. Church. And what fun to happen on a parade in York. Neat.

Wonderful England page. I really enjoyed your photos, but I think I'll pass on the Roman Bath - methinks somebody forgot to change the bathwater!! Penny

The sun may have set, but England's dusk is full of stars.

A very interesting page. I was lucky enough to see some of the places shown here so the page brought back many nice memories. I'm looking forward to info about Stratford and Chester.
