Beginners' Guide to Worcester

Worcester Cathedral from New Road Cricket Ground
As a resident of this glorious county for over 15 years, I feel obliged to relate the particlar features of the place.
Firstly, most people outside the UK have heard of the 'green and pleasant' land that England is perceived to be. Anyone wishing to discover whether this be true will be immediately satisfied when paying a visit to Worcestershire's Severn Valley. Rolling hills, trees, fields, lakes and rivers make this region one of the most delightful spots, depending on the weather, in Western Europe.
Secondly, rural English life still thrives here, although powers outside the area seem determined to put an end to this. Village fetes, parish cricket matches, hop yards and traditional public houses all supported by a web of gossip, local politics and silent, yet fierce, competitiveness, make Worcestershire English through and through. Anyone thinking that London is England is very much mistaken. Go to Worcestershire and enjoy the real England.
