There are 27 World Heritage Sites designated by UNESCO in the United Kingdom and Ireland and this authoritative guidebook describes them and their reasons for inclusion on the list. Fully illustrated in colour with accompanying maps, this will help visitors to find the sites plan their visit. Each site's history and unique features are clearly explained. The World Heritage list for the United Kingdom and Ireland is incredibly varied containing well-known places such as Stonehenge, Hadrian's Wall and the cities of Edinburgh and Bath but also lesser appreciated locations such as Cornwall's industrial landscapes and the locations behind the world's first industrial revolution such as Ironbridge Gorge. It also includes the glorious natural landscapes of the Jurassic Coast and the Giant's Causeway.
