Why do you want an FAA PPL if you are based in the UK?


But no, any ICAO PPL licence holder - Europe, Canada, South Africa, Australia - take your pick: regulation 61.75 gets you an FAA PPL with the same rights and privileges in the USA and/or on N-reg aircraft as your home licence.

Frankly however, get your first licence in your country of residence, as that's where you'll do most of your flying. Hence my suggesting Clacton and White Waltham, both of whom will do you a PPL on a tailwheel aeroplane quite happily.
