While-listening

Listen to the information about the south of England

Nearly half of England’s population lives on the south of England and most of the people live in London and the area around London, since that is where most of the jobs are based.

Canterbury Cathedral in Kent, which is called the Garden of England, is the home of the Archbishop of the Church of England. The 14^th century poet, Chaucer, wrote The Canterbury Tales, a collection of stories told by a group of pilgrims on their way to the town.

Brighton is the largest holiday resort on the south coast. It was once a small fishing village in 1724, when the Prince Regent, later King George IV, started going to Brighton to swim in the sea, the town became very fashionable.

Further west along the coast is Bournemouth, also a holiday resort. Both Brighton and Bournemouth have many language schools, which give them a lively, cosmopolitan atmosphere, especially in the summer.

Holiday resorts in the counties of Devon and Cornwall often have palm trees growing on the sea front. St Ives, a Cornish fishing village, has always attracted painters and in 1993 a new modern art gallery was opened there.
