Worst place you have ever visited in the UK?

put a space after the forward slash

Third time lucky...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueGtRjMiuDA

hah no wonder their football teams shte

As the title said UK, I shall cast the net a little further and nominate

Antrim

An absolute hell-hole of a town, still stuck in the '80s, lots of sectarian bullsh1t, horrific place.

I would also concur with Stoke, Rhyl, Slough, most of Liverpool, and to throw a new one into the mix, the absolute social catastrophe that is Dewsbury.

As for people saying Manchester, are they for real?

Liverpool and Manchester are no worse than each other

I take it you've never been to Leigh, Levenshulme or Stockport

manchester is pretty nice fair play, stayed in deansgate twice when watching the blues at old trafford

that video of fife you could imagine smackhead living in a shyte hole like that

What about Tottenham, Peckham, Deptford

indeed, tottenham and west ham are utter shyte holes, have the displeasure of seeing these shyte holes on a yearly basis, west ham away satarday aswell

avoid like the plague imo

Aussi. You take your football issues on to a geographical level. To suggest Manchester is laugahble but LIverpool is acceptable is indedd a joke.

I feel well judged to comment having lived in both Liverpool and Manchester for at least 10 years. I am also not Australian.

There is very little between them. Manchester has the edge, but not by much.

I have been to Tottenham. Never been to Peckham but have been told it makes some of the bad parts of London look like the south of France

peckhams a fecking tip mate

bandit country

So basically most of Britain is a khazi

Got Relatives in Radcliffe (Manchester), got a nice Asda there, nice and Green and stuff.

Depressing isn't it

west london is beautiful

north end road's not all that easy on the eye
ditto white city, acton, hounslow, west drayton

Fulham Road, Putney nice.

Don't say Chelsea - that's like saying Roman's not short of a few quid

Think this thread goes to show, that either most of the formites are either on the dole or chavs.

Or a chav on the dole (Is there still such a thing as the dole?)

i dont live in chelsea

fulham

Redruth (Deadruth), Camborne, Pool -  Cornwall

I think Doncaster needs a mention.

Doncaster - good call

Chelsea - I lived in Putney for a while which was nice but a bit too yuppified for a chav like me

got to a place called white chapel in london



shocking

Whitechapel - East End. Famous for Jack the Ripper and the Krays

not any more nick

famous for something i dare not say

, putney is alright mate decent enough area,

few of my tottenham supporting mates recently moved to battersea, im not a big fan of the area not being snobby its a bit iffy for me though but it is like the south of france to them as they were living in a shyte hole flat up in camden

Sorry for the history lesson, unemployed. Your post suggested only a vague familiarity with the area

The place had quite a buzz on a friday night. It was also convenient for the Bridge.

indeed, i actually live closer to craven cottage

quite a buzz hey nick

the buzzing noise from something other than the pubs if you get what i mean...
putney done loads of work that way

hampton court my manour

I drove through Whitechapel a few weeks back. Quickly. With the doors locked.

Manchester takes some beating in the Dumps Stakes.

Not only is it an awful town, strewn with litter & chewing gum but a very high proportion of the residents are thick as two short planks.

When you add 20,000 speed cameras to that it truly is a sh!thole.

nobbyclarke in a slaag manchester off shocker [:o]

has this ever happend before?

I left Manchester for Surrey 30 years ago. I won't even go back for funerals now.

There's still a part of me that thinks it's like Corrie

Galashiels....still has outside toilets!

Boscombe, Bournemouth, heroine central, and all the druggies from Liverpool get sent down there for 'rehabilitation' - they end up staying long term.

surrey nobs where abouts?

pontyprid....horror show

I,ve lived/worked in most of the major cities they all have positives/negatives I,m a Glaswegian so am biased people are great/generous obviously there are a lot of wil ones but the generalisation is very good and you are only 45 mins from some of the most stunning countryside anywhere.

London like New York too cosmopolitan and natves a bit stand offish/tight
Birmingham great people
Manchester great people
Liverpool great people
Yorkshire cities don,t fancy and tight as a bulls a--e in August
Newcastle people are ok but very very clanish poor mixers
Edinburgh don,t fancy the people but great city
Aberdeen odd folk
S East England get,s the rest of England a bad name and as miserable as cat,s s--t
Cornwall inward looking not the friendliest.

best I can do  cheers

peckham, 3rd world

London.

"if you're tired of London, you're tired of life"

Sittingbourne.

pray tell , why would anyone wish to visit any of these places mentioned ?  surely ,when one leaves their own 'sh1tehole' they would head for somewhere a little more sallubrious ,surely ?

"  surely ,when one leaves their own 'sh1tehole' they would head for somewhere a little more sallubrious ,surely ? "

That's exactly what Romanians who end up in Sunderland will be thinking as they kick themselves

Depressing is different from grim.

The runners and riders for worst are as follows:

Telford, Bracknell & Milton Keynes for eg. all ugly new towns, concrete jungles and more depressing as opposed to grim due to no character.

Bradford makes Huddersfield look like Monaco.

Luton, Slough, Harlow, Peterborough & parts of London grimmer than a butchers dustbin.

Stoke, not a very nice place & people thick as the proverbial as well as being unfriendly to boot. A potentially winning combo.

New Skelmersdale is a complete dump, whereas new skelmersdale is actually decent

Kirby has little to recommend it other than a genepool of football talent.

Blackburn, Bolton, Burnley. Any northern town with a 'B' is by definition a complete toilet.

Hastings, Rhyl, Blackpool - can all be fun but run down seaside towns make for an evening like the wild west.

Glasgow reeks of chip fat & violence. Rab C Nesbitt sets the tone for sartorial elegance.

Farnborough, not the worst place but pretty bleak and a boil on the bottom of Hart (officially best place to live in England 2 years running

The votes have been counted and the crappiest place in England is...............


'Bratfort' - to give it the proper title! Overall, this cesspit wins hands down as it has absolutely nothing to recommend it. Even the rats have packed up and p1ssed off.

Bratfort is the crappest. Does that make it .. Bratwurst?

We call Jaywick 'Soweto' for obvious reasons, it really is a ****.

When Location Location Location did a list of the  best places to stay
in the UK the twin Glasgow suburbs of Bearsden and Milngavie made the
top ten.
Having said that,Sauchiehall St on a Friday or Saturday night is like
a zoo.

Do Bearsdensians (?) think of themselves as proper Glasgow though?
A lot of areas get absorbed into bigger cities and resent it.

I'm sure even Mogadishu has a nice area somewhere.

It's a pity the rats haven't pissed off. There's that many I suspect the rat:human population ratio is the highest in the country, they're that big that the nationals have done stories about Bradford's superrats. And to top it all off, the council even gave the rats their own underground swimming pool. And I'm afraid that last bit isn't a joke.

did anyone say 'The North'?

So did Glasgow win the prize then.

It would be okay if it wasn't full of Weegies.

LUTON-----Nap

Stoke on Trent.  Lived there for 9 years, there isn't a good thing to say about it.

seven sisters in london, rest of uk ,scotland and irleand is awesome

Stoke on Trent.  Lived there for 9 years, there isn't a good thing to say about it.

It's close to the M6. That's a good thing.

New Skelmersdale is a complete dump, whereas new skelmersdale is actually decent

two faces of new skelmersdale, in and after daylight

anywhere in wales......its the pits

I thought Thatcher got rid of all the Welsh pits.

Luton ..... Avoid at all costs

Morecambe, fack me that place is grim and some people even choose to have a holiday there.

stoke

greenock

most of theses places are up north, maybe its true what they say, london is a first class city in a second class country

the seven sisters road is just a normal road

clearly never been there ayers its  a rat hole forgotten by whole world not to mention great city of london, harlesden pretty similar as well

London empties at the weekend, residents can't bear the place.

clearly never been there? why would you think i would say its a normal road? it's because i have been there, its nothing out of the ordianry

London is a filthy plaice

greenock is far too quirky and entertaining to be the worst place ever and it has a lovely location. clear it out, knock down a few estates and it would be great. it must be a big reality check for those folks disembarking after luxury cruises though.

Surely anyone not saying Luton have not been there.

you cxan pretty much draw a ine across the country ,starting somwhere around hereford in the west and taking it across to the south of Lowestoft on the east

By and large with a few exceptions either side you can say that the area south of that line is pretty much OK

Harrogate ,York,Chester,Lincoln ,Durham,Edinburgh,Whitby,Beverley,Lake District (i'm sure the scottish western isles are lovely)  are a few of the nice areas north of that line i've visited

Best Edinburgh, Worst London

I am from Walsall and it is a serious Sh1t dump,but West Brom is worse

Sleaford, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Harlow

OOPS! Old Skem is ok, New Skem is a toilet!

Saying "London" shows total ignorance. Many parts like Stonebridge, Southall, and lots of south & east london ARE sh1tholes but other parts are paradise by comparison. Hampstead/Hampstead Gardens/Highgate are lovely and houses there run anything up to £40mil+ There are plenty of other nice areas in London too. There are huge swathes of London where you cannot even buy a house for less than £1-2mil, and that's not because they are slums!!

Ignorance.  Couldn't agree more.   I lived in London for 30 years in many different places.  There are massive differences in areas only a few 100 yards away.  You might as well say England is shit because you had a day trip to Dover.

horrible plaice london

pennywell is an  experience

Hull is the biggest sh1t-hole in the North and Reading the worst in the South imo

Walsall - went into a terraced house  pub- awful

Romford in Essex or Rowley Regis in the Black Country for me.

Romford in Essex or Rowley Regis in the Black Country for me.

Scunthorpe or Thurnscoe

exactly rodan, london is everything in one, one one hand u have towere hamlets th poorest borough in the country in the shadow of one of the most recognisable and iconic landmarks in the world

then u have places like hampstead, some parts of richmond, kensington, u know uve made it if ur living there

pontypool a right sh1thole,but the locals were friendly, well the girls were

jaywick, nap

Whatever. So no parts of X-town don't have areas with million pound houses then either.

how did you find this thread Ayers Rock

I was looking for something else, found this along the way

You have to go a long way to find a worse view than Port Talbot.  Horrific.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Port_Talbot_Steelworks_-_geograph.org.uk_-_41552.jpg

Luton, Doncaster good shouts.  Horror towns.

Redcar,Stockton and Peterborough are shocking ommisions

Anyone ever been to Nuneaton or Bedworth?

Larne - Sh1thole that is rotting away and would be forgotten about if it not for the port.  90% of the traffic is people doing driving lessons, the other 10% is joyriders.  Horrible horrible place.

Lurgan - If you ever hear anything about sectarian trouble in NI, I would guarantee that this backwater of a town has something to do with it.  Never met anyone from Lurgan who didn't harbor sectarian views.  C unt central.

Agree 100% with Luton, Birch, absolute feckin dump. I'll see Nuneaton this year with Welling away, will report back then

well thats pretty much the whole country covered, its a complete shitheap.
