Euston Station is a box, and it's always nice to get out and into the streets of Bloomsbury.

I have several favourites. Maes Howe in Orkney is a quite incredible place, with runes and pictures carved on the inside by a party of Vikings holed up in there during a two-week (!) storm.

I too love cathedrals, and I particularly like Edinburgh for it's carvings. Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral impresses with size, but Winchester is my favourite.

Castles: Manorbeir, Stokesay and Conwy are particular favourites but I saw Carew Castle when I was a boy and the memory has never left me. Must get back there.

Aside from that: The Natural History Museum in Kensington, The Rotunda in Brum, various pubs, Villa Park.
