The town of Ludlow, Shropshire, has been named one of the 10 best places to live in the UK. The ranking was published by experts from The Telegraph, who took into account factors such as shopfront aesthetics, historic architecture, traffic, litter, and views.

Thus, the town scored 43 points out of a possible 50 and also received 10 points out of 10 for its scenery. This was reported in The Mirror.

It is reported that Ludlow is a medieval market town whose landscapes have hardly changed over the past 500 years. This city is famous for its quality food, excellent dining options, and annual festivals, including the Food and Drink Festival, which is traditionally held in the spring.

Travelers who visit this town can see the majestic medieval castle of the 11th century, which is located in the city center. Also, tourists are recommended to visit the Whitcliffe Common walking paths, which offer a panoramic view of the castle and the entire town. In addition, there are Tudor-era wooden houses, a beer garden on the top floor of the Charlton Arms riverside tower, as well as the hills, valleys, and forests of the Marches.
