Network rail bill the bus operators considerable sums for hitting their bridges.
Saying that I know of a disused railway bridge a little to the north of Liskeard with a 12ft clearance that network rail will never need to know about!
I can think of a few around my area too - the one at Chilcompton could be a good choice.
Basingstoke is a pretty excellent place too - Or Stagecoach seems to think so. The 54 plate MX Trident which had it's erm, altercation with the bridge last summer had it's roof sliced off so cleanly that it's gone to Exeter to become this years Torbay open topper!
To be fair to the designers at Plaxton - They had a period of designing an almost timeless vehicle in the form of the SPD & President. Give either a high quality refurbishment and repaint (preferably the type as specified by FG with bonded glazing) and both vehicles still have the ability to look just as modern and fresh as the Enviro's do now. Wright's had this useful design trait with the Solar/Eclipse for a while as well.
