Both Alan Moore in his Voice Of The Fire and Alma Warren in the same author's Jerusalem:
walk through the center of Northampton;
pass the statue of Charles Bradlaugh (for the statue, see here);
reflect on what they see;
impart information about the history of the city, its buildings and people.
See Streets And Cities II.
Lancaster has a statue of Queen Victoria in a square in front of the Town Hall. See Today In Lancaster. However, I cannot write either as entertainingly or as informatively about a walk through Lancaster. See The Spider And I Are One.
Fiction is easier to appreciate than to emulate.
