Both churches are superb and should definitely have a place on any visitor's "must see" list! Edited by: Rob Faleer at:19th November 2009 14:28 My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I stayed in Beverley when I was invited to a wedding once and I loved it there. Felt like I had been there before - really strange feeling of belonging there.

The Yorkshire Wolds hill country is beautiful, plus it's near to York, one of the great medieval cities of the UK. I'm seriously considering staying in this area on my next trip over.

Beverly looks like a lovely town, with its minster. I'll be posting some pictures of Wimborne Minster in Dorset, which is about the same vintage as Beverly, but might be a bit smaller. Stephanie, you said, "Felt like I had been there before - really strange feeling of belonging there." That's what a lot of Americans feel when they go to England. I felt that way about N. Yorkshire, not really like I'd been there before, but more like I belonged there, it felt comfortable, like home. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

It was a strange feeling Ruth- I even knew where everything was in Beverley - what was round the next corner! It isn't my choice of place to live now although it's lovely - if I had the chance I would live at St David's in Pembrokeshire, Wales. I really feel like I belong there.
