Wells is England's smallest city, granted its status solely on the basis of its stunning medieval cathedral, often considered the most beautiful in England. The city's medieval precinct with Vicar's Close (the oldest continuously inhabited street in Europe), the Bishop's Palace with its famous moat and swans, and the compact centre create one of England's most picturesque urban settings.
“England's smallest city with magnificent cathedral. Premium property market. Tourism and schools drive economy.”
