Georgian Britain: walking the squares
Bath, Edinburgh New Town, Bloomsbury — the architecture of the 18th century.
The Georgian period (1714-1837) gave Britain its most coherent urban architecture — terraces, squares, crescents in honey-coloured stone or warm brick. Bath has the most famous (the Royal Crescent, the Circus); Edinburgh's New Town the largest; London's Bloomsbury and Marylebone the densest. A long weekend can cover all three.
