Default BBC's UK's Worst

Absolutely. When the royals built Windsor Castle it was their own fault
they didn't take the airport into account.


As the American tourists say, it's so convenient they built Windsor Castle
next to the airport.

Or of Clifford's Tower in York (C13), 'do you think these are original'
referring to the safety steps and handrails leading upwards!

Or the tourist asking the guide why a Tudor mansion was built so close to
the freeway.

It was so Henry VIII could make a quick getaway from his 8
Mothers-in-law in his Porsche. I thought everybody knew that.
