Tips from the Community
The Cathedral – i.e. a bishop’s church – in the city of Worcester is a very historic building with an almost thousand-year-old Christian tradition. The construction of this house of worship was begun as early as AD 1084, shortly after the Norman conquest of England (by William the Conqueror, formerly Duke of Normandy, then King of England, AD 1066). This house of worship and thus the entire diocese has, which is by no means unusual for Anglican cathedrals, been entrusted to a double patronage: firstly Jesus Christ himself, the God-son incarnate, and secondly the most blessed Mother of God and Virgin Mary.

Until the later half of the 20th century, the bridge at Upton was the only one across the River Severn between Worcester and Tewkesbury; the present bridge was built in 1940. Oliver Cromwell's soldiers crossed the Severn here to win the battle of Upton before the main Battle of Worcester in the English Civil War.

Although it's located on a B-road. The road is mostly traffic-free, with occasional cars passing through. Great views of Severn Valley, Worcester, Droitwich, and even Bredon Hill can be seen. Quite a good climb

Built by the order of Norman kings, astonishing place for history lovers. A tomb of King John is located inside of the cathedral. Additionally, the top is also worth checking, but it is better to double check opening hours.

The town has a very long history (dating back to Early Saxon Age). Famous as a market town during the Middle Ages. I'd strongly recommend visiting Ledbury heritage centre, which is located near Parish church, where you can dive into the history of that place.

Worth checking if the tower is open as well. 235 steps to the top.

I recommend not riding up this lane due to dangerously out of control dogs allowed to roam free on the road. I was hounded by 3 dogs for 400m
