Brentwood
Heritage-dense Essex town on the London commuter belt, Brentwood has a walkable High Street — a former Roman road — lined with cafés, restaurants, and listed buildings. Brentwood Cathedral serves as the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brentwood, and open countryside and woodland reach close to the town centre. Brentwood School is a well-known institution here, and the town sits just outside the M25, making central London readily accessible.
