Anybody know a real live Brit?

I know my flist contains at least one. I have a creative writing-related question that Google is not answering satisfactorily. An OC of mine hails from a small English town, which should be working class, reasonably near a coast (like, within an hour's driving distance), and not of a particularly high average education level. Now, I fully intend to make up the town itself. My question is, where should it be located? Can you suggest a region, or a county, where such a place might logically be found?

I'm leaving this unlocked, if you want to send someone over here to answer. Thanks in advance!
