Have to add to the votes for Stoke. Used to drive through every Friday evening and still wonder why anyone would want to live there.
Middlesbrough is another. Had a free Hilton weekend a few years ago and that was the only place we could get. What a dump (although the countryside around is nice).
Also agree with East London. The area around West Ham is one of the most depressing I've ever seen and bits of Hackney/Tower Hamlets aren't up to much.
Worked in Northampton a few times and there's some grim bits there.
But the area around CoMS is about the worst in the country I reckon. Gas holders, railway viaducts, boarded up houses, the lot.
