Some examples of wonders include:· Historic Hungerford in Berkshire, where William of Orange was staying when he was offered the crown after the Glorious Revolution· The world famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, soaring spectacularly on slender tapered columns 126 feet over the River Dee below· Hest Bank, with its stunning views and the only place where a canal runs so close to the seashore that you can smell the seaweed from the back of your boatAs well as lively personal anecdotes, and insightful commentary on Britain’s heritage and history, this guide includes handy recommendations to help you make the most of your visit to each wonder.
