I have an iPhone running iOS 11.1.2. How do I remove the URL in my screen at the top of Safari so that I can type in a new search?

When I tap and hold, the only options I get are copy and paste and go. Formerly a small x appears beside the URL when I held it down and that erased the URL. That small x doesn't appear now.

    If the whole url is selected, just over type or hit the backspace key.

You don't need to tap and hold. You can just tap the URL and you will see a 'X' icon. You can tap the X to delete the URL and enter new URL. You can also enter directly without tapping the X as the text is already selected. Typing over will delete the existing text.
