The Lakeland town where even the service stations are scenic

Penrith has for a long time been a stepping stone of a town, the one you might take the train to if you’re spending a few days in the Lake District. So warmly have the locals embraced this status that they’ve even put a 14th-century castle ruin by the station, the better to lure rail passengers to linger.

How Tiffany & Co. Got Its Cool Back

At my all-girls secondary school in the early '00s, a shiny Tiffany dog tag on a balled silver chain denoted a confidence not typical of teenage girls. Worn by the sort of girls who had donned a Baby G way back in year 5 before anyone else was even comfortable in fountain pen, a piece of Tiffany jewellery marked its wearer out as a person of influence. In a similar fashion and at a similar time to fellow heritage brand Burberry, Tiffany swept through the nation, the mere sight of a little 'Tiffany blue' (the brand’s trademarked colour) box with a white ribbon around it causing mass hysteria.

The Fall and Rise of the Amir Sisters by Nadiya Hussain review: An enriching read from the Bake Off winner

When Nadiya Hussain’s first novel, The Secret Lives of the Amir Sisters, came out in January 2018, it was deemed “lovely”, “funny” and “breezy”.

Its French and Italianate buildings, graceful plazas and cultural life are the envy of most Old World cities. Thirteen million people live in Greater BA, its suburbs fanning out into the surrounding pampas.

De-icing trains deployed across UK to keep travellers moving

Special snow-busting trains will be deployed across the UK in a bid to minimise disruption for travellers during the cold weather.

The bizarre Turkish ghost town of abandoned Gothic 'castles'

You could probably argue that the mind of the architect has never dreamed up a style of building quite as romantic as the Gothic fortress. There is something about its points and precision - sharp turrets pointing towards the heavens, a room at the top perfect for a trapped princess or a fairytale character in some curious peril - that sings across the centuries. What, after all, is the Cinderella Castle - the fibreglass fantasy which adorns Disney theme parks across the planet - but a modern evocation of this grand design?
