Around Worcester and Gloucester
Malvern
Home to ancient iron-age hill forts and the birthplace of Edward Elgar
The Malvern Hills rise quite dramatically out of the Severn Valley with incredible views across to the Cotswolds, over the rolling countryside of Herefordshire and even as far as the Black Mountains on a clear day.
Renowned for amazing sunrises, sunsets, and stunning cloud formations, the Malvern Hills are an all-year-round destination with different colours and light changing throughout the seasons.
People used to visit from far and wide to take Malvern Spring Water for medicinal purposes in the form of hydrotherapy, including Florence Nightingale, Charles Dickens, and Charles Darwin
The hills and the town are full of historical connections, including Benedictine Monks and the oldest medieval stain-glass windows besides York Minister in England at Great Malvern Priory
Everyone’s favourite British-made motor car which has been made in the town since 1910. You can enjoy a tour of the Morgan Experience Centre and hire a Morgan car straight from the factory where they are still made today.
You don’t have to buy a Morgan whilst you’re here; just have a cup of tea and slice of cake at the Morgan Experience Café.
Worcester
Worcester Cathedral has been a place of Christian worship and prayer for fourteen centuries. The present building was begun in 1084 and is dedicated to Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The Cathedral is just a short walk away from the Commandery – site of the Royalist’s Civil War HQ.
Just a stone’s throw away from the Cathedral are historic Friar Street and New Street where two of Worcester’s oldest and most historic pubs are located. The Cardinal’s Hat in Friar Street is the city’s oldest inn dating back to the fourteenth century, serving craft ales and the most delicious homemade pies and sharing boards. The King Charles House on New Street is now a restaurant and holds a special place in British history. As King Charles II fled after defeat at the Battle of Worcester in 1651, the residents of New Street held off Cromwell’s army so he could make his escape from the house.
Tudor House Museum and Greyfriars House on Friar Street will quench your thirst for historical knowledge, and the Guildhall on the High Street is a popular venue beautifully decorated.
The Firs, just outside the City of Worcester is the birthplace of Sir Edward Elgar the man behind ‘Nimrod’ and ‘Land of Hope and Glory’.
Gloucester
Built in 1089 to 1499 Gloucester Cathedral is one of the most beautiful cathedrals in England, step inside to see the breath-taking East window and cloisters. You may even spot some familiar scenes with the cathedral and grounds having been the backdrop for popular productions Harry Potter and Mary Queen of Scots.
Gloucester Docks is the most inland port in the UK and has 15 Victorian warehouses, all now listed buildings. The City's regular festivals such as the Tall Ships Festival draw in huge crowds down at the waterside. Docked at St Anns bridge is the LV14 Sula Lightship. Originally commissioned by the Humber Conservancy Board in 1959 the LV14 was a working lightship in the north sea. 10 years ago it found its way to Gloucester Docks and has now been beautifully restored by the owners, establishing itself as one of Gloucester’s favourite landmarks.
The Rococo Gardens, Painswick.This is the last remaining Rococo garden in the country, planted in 1740 this gorgeous landscape was the height of sophistication in the 1700’s, hosting decadent garden parties. In early spring the showstopping Snowdrop display is one of the best in the area and well worth a visit.
Purton Ship Graveyard known locally as “The Hulks” this collection of 86 vessels dating back to the 1950s, stretches from Purton to Sharpness and is the largest ship graveyard in the country. Beautiful at sunset but beware of the tide!
Tyndale Monument Constructed in 1866 this 111ft tower stands proud over North Nibley and the surrounding countryside, the views are incredible and on a clear day you can easily see the Severn crossings and the Welsh countryside.
The Forest of Dean – Sculpture Trail Established in 1986 this collection of artwork changes constantly, some of the more popular pieces include the hanging stain glass window which is a permanent feature. This is a very family friendly location with loads to keep the kids entertained while you snap away.
The Berkeley family welcome you to Berkeley Castle; Their ancient fortress home where they have lived since the late 12th Century.The most remarkable thing about the Castle is that for nine centuries, the building, the Berkeley family, the archives (which go back to the 12th Century), the contents, the estate and the town have all survived together.Its place in history is significant, not just because it is still intact, but because the Berkeley family and their home have played an important part in the power struggles of so many centuries.
