A Plaque for Wallace in London (Not Quite a Braveheart Bonanza)

3 out of 5 stars

Calling all history lovers! You'll find a commemorative plaque dedicated to Sir William Wallace in London, near Smithfield Market. It's a thoughtful tribute to the Scottish hero, but if you're expecting a grand statue or epic battle reenactments, this might not be your cup of tea. Still, a cool little stop for a history buff on the go. Just don't forget to bring your reading glasses – the inscription might be a bit tough to decipher.
York City Walls

Walk the Walls of York (Like a Medieval Defender, Without the Black Death)

5 out of 5 stars

York's city walls are basically a giant time machine. You can walk the battlements like a grumpy old knight, pretend to defend the city from invaders ( squirrels mostly), and get some pretty epic views of York. Just watch out for rogue pigeons and tourists wielding selfie sticks like swords. All in all, a fun way to spend an afternoon and feel a bit historical (without the inconvenience of actual plague).
