Question about law for those doing a different degree

DC is planning to do a History degree with the view of then doing a law conversion. Does anyone know which Universities have good links with the law departments and offer opportunities for non law students? Top choices at present are: Durham (aspirational choice and probably unlikely as PG is AAA), Bristol, Exeter, Warwick (not visited so not sure yet) and York/Manchester

I’m not sure the universities do the GDL. Certainly London is a good place to do it. After that it’s a case of doing the relevant training and some solicitor employers have contracts with BPP or Uni of Law. Other employers expect students to pay for it and don’t offer training contracts at all. Or only take on paralegals and pick trainees from them after a few years. So all of this needs investigation.
