Worcesteshire - The roots of history

You can leisurely take your time visiting Worcestershire's beautiful country gardens and arboreta, explore historic National Trust and English Heritage properties, as well as enjoying a homemade cream tea in one of the tea rooms.

Why not explore Worcestershire's historic roots, visiting sites such as the famous Worcester Cathedral, you can explore the birthplace of Edward Elgar and discover the county which inspired his music. End your journey with a cultural visit at the Museum of Royal Worcester.

The Museum holds the largest collection of Worcester porcelain in the world and has just undergone a major £1.7 million refurbishment supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund. Whilst being fresh and modern the new displays pay homage to a magnificent history and heritage.

The new galleries and show cases are swathed in sumptuous colours showing the collection off to its best advantage. With the recreation of the factory work shop and family parlour amongst some of the new displays and high quality interactives there is something for everyone.
