Worcester Cathedral and the River Severn viewed from Worcester Bridge.


Worcester is a beautiful Cathedral and University City on the banks of the River Severn, in the heart of England. Close to the Malvern Hills and the Cotswolds and with easy access from the M5 it is packed with heritage and its vibrant, compact centre combines quintessential English charm with modern convenience. Famous worldwide as the home of the world's oldest newspaper Berrow's Journal, exquisite Royal Worcester porcelain and piquant Worcestershire Sauce, the city offers the visitor an excellent range of shopping, culture and sports as well. Premiership rugby, county cricket, National Hunt racing, and more make up a sporting offer to complement the city's amazing history: the Grade 1 listed Guildhall in High Street, the Cathedral and Worcester Porcelain Museum or the half-timbered Commandery with its important role in the English Civil War, 500-year-old Tudor House and Greyfriars House and Garden set against the black and white charm of Friar Street.
