10 Most Miserable Towns in the UK
What are the most miserable towns in the United Kingdom? Many of the towns in the United Kingdom are not doing too badly in terms of basic amenities. The quality of life in those towns is higher even than in places recognized as cities in other countries. Still, it can’t be said that all those towns are having it equally. Assessing the standard of living and quality of life in the UK as a whole, we can describe certain towns in the United Kingdom as miserable. Granted, those towns are not inherently terrible. Yet, the situation there is not acceptable in the light of what we see in other villages, towns, and cities, in the UK. In this video, we shall be discussing the 10 most miserable towns in the UK.
10. Cumbernauld, Scotland
We will start our discussion with a town in Scotland. To give you a hint; this is the first of the three Scottish towns on this list of the 10 most miserable towns in the UK. We are talking about Cumbernauld, a large town in North Lanarkshire with an area of 8.3 square miles or 21.5 square kilometers. Under normal circumstances, it should be a city because of its city-like huge population of 51,000.
It has not shed that horrible description as “Scotland’s most dismal town.” Truly speaking, this town is lacking in anything of the good things you would find in Glasgow or Edinburgh. The center of Cumbernauld has been described as the “Kabul of the North.” This says it all. Whatever you know about Kabul has its miniature in this miserable town.
9. Grimsby, England
The first of the 5 cities in England on this list is Grimsby. Maybe we should stop calling it Great Grimsby. If it were great indeed, this port town and the North East Lincolnshire administrative center on the south bank of the Humber Estuary would have all amenities that would make it rank among the best. But the comments from its residents and one-time visitors indicated that life is miserable in this place that has been voted several times as one of the worst places to live in England.
Therefore, the town of around 100,000 residents is one of the most miserable towns in the UK. Its entire area of 88 square miles (or 230 square kilometers) has been ranked the 18th worst place to live a while ago.
8. Airdrie, Scotland
Back in Scotland; we are now examining Airdrie, a town in North Lanarkshire. It also is one of the most miserable towns in the UK. The town on a plateau with an elevation of 400 feet or 130 meters above sea level is about 12 miles (or 19 kilometers) east of Glasgow city center. During its industrial heyday in the 19th century, coal mining and cotton milling were the major industries, no one could then think of this former industrial town as miserable.
However, the exit of those industries has made life there miserable to extent of being branded the most dismal town in the UK. The PR manager for the town admits it deserves its grim reputation as the worst in Scotland. The town is boring and the buildings are ugly.

Cambridge, Ely, & Littleport (England Travel Vlog - Part 1)
Our recent trip to England started out with a weekend getaway to Cambridge, Ely, & Littleport. Some of the highlights include The Big Weekend in Cambridge, Ely Cathedral, and The Old School in Littleport. In the late 90s, I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall, so it was nice to return to the area and see how it has changed.
Of course, the blog starts off at the Denver airport and chronicles our journey to England. We arrived on Friday morning, but mostly recovered from jet lag and visited with relatives. Saturday morning, we got up and headed to Cambridge. We walked the streets and checked out some of the colleges and The Big Weekend Festival.
On Sunday, we explored The Old School which was built in 1847. In 1990, it was converted to townhomes and I bought one of them when I was stationed nearby. We stayed in another of The Old School townhomes which is now an art gallery and AirBNB (see below for details about the art gallery).
Before heading back to the London area, we took a tour of Ely cathedral and its Octagon Tower. This cathedral dates back to the 11th century and the tower was built in the 1300s.

Ely City Walk | One of the smallest cities in England!
This video is a short video tour around Ely city center. Ely is one of the smallest cities in England with population around 20 000 people. It is a cathedral city in Cambridshire. It is located on the top of so called 'Isle of Ely' - the Kimmeridge clay island in the Cambridgeshire Fens. The city has longtime history going back to Iron Age and Roman period. Christian community and Abbey was founded here in 673 AD by Anglo Saxon princess, Saint Ethelreda. Unfortunately, it is nothing left from the Anglo Saxon church.
Last 1000 years the city is dominated by Norman Cathedral. The construction of the Cathedral started in 1083 and it took 300 years to complete it. The Cathedral is so massive that you can easily see it 5-8 miles away from Ely. Surrounded by medieval streets and buildings the Cathedral amazes you with its splendor.
Another place to visit is Oliver Cromwell's House - the former home of the Lord Protector Oliver Cromwell.
Enjoy the walk through this lovely city!
