Default Scenic areas in England

Hi everyone;

I will be visiting England on a very brief stay. I will have two days in
London, two days in Norwich, and two days in Liverpool early next month.
I am an avid amateur photographer. I am wondering if anyone on this
newsgroup can suggest areas of those three cities where I can go to
shoot some interesting photographs, but that are not like the ones
everyone else who visits those areas is likely to shoot. For example, is
there any tall buildings where I can get access to the roof legally
where I can shoot some interesting photos, or some unique parks, etc.?
Note that I will be relying 100% on public transportation.


The city of Ely is near has a really nice cathedral and grounds,
including roof access on the tour

Don't know what kind of public transport there is

Easy to get to Ely by train from all the cities the OP mentioned
(indeed, direct services to Ely from all three, even Liverpool), and you
obviously wouldn't usually need PT to cover Ely itself- it's compact.
