My wife and I were invited to a party in Southwell, but, as we did not know where it was, we had to look for it on Google Maps! When we got there we discovered a small town in Nottinghamshire of around 7,000 inhabitants about 14 miles NE of Nottingham and with a fascinating history: a Norman cathedral called Southwell Minster, a racecourse, the birthplace of the Bramley apple, and we stayed in a hotel where King Charles I spent his last night before his arrest.The residents call Southwell a "city", and their local football club is called "Southwell City", but I was not brave enough to tell them that officially it is just a cathedral town.
Southwell - the city that is really a cathedral town
