Hang on, if it's *natural* wonders, Tower Bridge and Stonehenge are out... And Ironbridge gorge is ok, just as long as you're not counting the Iron Bridge itself.
The white cliffs of Dover.
The Severn bore.
Snowdon.
Lulworth cove
High force waterfall, Teesdale
Fingal's cave, Staffa (the other end of the giants causeway!)
Dan-yr-Ogof caves, Brecon Beacons.

*I would propose Snowdonia national park for its beautiful mountains and lakes, and Portmeirion village as an example of a man-made feature perfectly complementing the landscape.
*For sheer grandeur and tranquillity, it's got to be Fountains Abbey in North Yorkshire, one of the few World Heritage sites in this country. Coming in a close second must be the Yorkshire Dales for their breathtaking majesty and sense of natural antiquity. Oh, of course not forgetting the Lords Pavilion, sheer class!
*What about the likes of the Giant's Causeway and the Scottish Highlands?
*Wiltshire's prehistoric landmark Stonehenge is one of the wonders of Britain
*The upper Pennines, around the Roman Wall
*The Eden Project is my favourite wonder. It's entertaining, cool, educational, caters for all ages and it's a miracle it was finished, but the people stuck with it and it's grand.
*The Tower of London. For sheer weight of history, no other building comes close.

Cheating a bit there - Tower Bridge not natural but will let you off if I can have Avebury and Silbury Hill!
Also - North Cornish Coastline
Lake District
Snowdonia
White Cliffs of Dover
Yorkshire Dales

Great question.
The view from my house across the water meadows to the Thames on an icy morning, with the msit rising, has to be one for me, and the same view with cattle grazing on a July evening is another. And I live in London....
Can I vote also for:
Faraidh Head in Sutherland
The Torridon Hills
The summit Plateau of Ben Alder on a spring evening
I have only ever seen two visions of pure beauty, and both were on the outskirts of major cities, so beauty is everywhere, you just have to know how, not where, to look.
My word it is a fine country.

organic wonders might actual would desire to incorporate the Giants Causeway, The Needles, Cheddar Gorge, The Severn Bore,,Mam Tor, The lake District and the North Yorks Moors. Sorry to those in Scotland and Wales, yet i'm no longer qualified to go with between the two as i individually don't be conscious of them. Too be remedied as quickly as i'm able to!!

Helvelyn
Wookey Hole

Langdale Pikes
Swallow Falls

Tower Bridge and Stonehenge are not natural wonders.
