What's the worst place you've ever been in the UK?

[In2mindsss]

Ill go first.

Morecambe. Nice views but proper creepy.

I quite liked Oban.

The centre would be lovely if the swept out of the drug addicts and filled the empty buildings. The old architecture is stunning. Oddly, that makes it worse. Such a fall from what it was in my grandparents lifetime

Seriously!!! Ive been meaning to gi there, its supposed to have beautiful cliffs and cave swimming. What's wrong with it?

Agreed. And I live there.

Crawley

When I was little my parents had booked us a few nights in Blackpool, early 70s.
We drove up to the hotel, dad announced ‘We’re not bloody staying here’ & we drove off.
I’ve never been back 😂

Was about to ask the same question. I think its lovely

They do indeed! Everyone was clearly staying there for work.

You have to spend every minute leaning at a 45 degree angle due to the place being a giant outdoor wind tunnel.

Agreed. And I live there.

Arbroath is proper creepy.

That’s so oddly specific

Oh god yes. Spent an afternoon there after missing the ferry, what an awful place. It was 40 years ago and I still remember it like it was yesterday 😐

Exeter, drug addicts shooting up on multi story car park stairs

Why is it creepy?

Plumstead.

Stratford, East London. Awful place, and every time i have the misfortune to go there something bad happens. Has a violent undercurrent.

This. My BF has a holiday house there and I am so glad you wrote this as I feel like I am chronically depressed there.

Blackpool

What! I thought it had undergone a massive makeover since the 2010s

Glenrothes; Kirkcaldy

It is beautiful. Just creepy.

Fort William. Depressing, bleak, creepy people who followed me, aggressive supermarket staff, plus someone shoved a dual carriageway between the town and loch so it’s a bit ugly

UN emergency relief workers, presumably.

if that’s a portmerion reference I'm afraid i don’t understand it 😂

The 1960s tv series The Prisoner was filmed in Portmeirion. That is the well known quote from the show.

Neither the Prisoner, played by Patrick McGoohan, nor the viewer, ever find out what's going on. It was a bit of a cult at the time.
