You could start with 'The Tell - Tale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe as it has influenced many British short story writers. But if you want pure British, 'The Lady with the Dog' by Anton Chekhov, who was Russian but had an influence on British literature, gives a good example of a relationship - centered story. Then move on to more classic British like 'The Canterville Ghost' by Oscar Wilde. It's a witty and humorous take on the ghost story genre, full of Wilde's characteristic sharp social commentary.

One must - read short story is 'The Lottery' by Shirley Jackson. It's a chilling tale that starts off seemingly normal in a small town but takes a dark turn during an annual lottery. Another is 'A Good Man Is Hard to Find' by Flannery O'Connor, which explores themes of morality and redemption through a family's road trip. And 'Hills Like White Elephants' by Ernest Hemingway is also great, with its subtle yet powerful exploration of a relationship through a simple conversation at a train station.
