14. Berwick-upon-Tweed walls
Berwick's town walls are its most famous piece of architecture and still stand strong today, hundreds of years after they were built. Its Elizabethan Walls, built in 1558 to keep out marauding Scots, are a mile and a-quarter in length. The ramparts completely surround the town, with four gates through which entry to the town is enabled. Photo: Kimberely Powell
