This City is a must-visit destination for history buffs and avid shoppers alike, and sits just outside the M25, 20 miles north of London, between the A1 and the M1. Roman ar
tefacts and remains in pretty Verulamium Park are just a stone’s throw from its majestic Norman cathedral, and a walk around the town will take in lovely Georgian and half-timbered Tudor buildings.
On Wednesdays and Saturdays the City is alive with the sights and sounds of one of the region’s most vibrant outdoor Markets, which runs the length of the main street. Even this has history at its heart; the Market has had a charter since 1553. From sizzling street food, fresh fruits and vegetables and clothing to unique gifts and homewares, there’s something for everyone.
