A mainly agricultural county in West Central England. The famous Hereford cattle are named after this region.

The main towns in the county, formed in 1974, are Worcester, Hereford, Kidderminster, Evesham, Ross-on-Wye and Ledbury. The county was formed by the merging of Worcestershire and Herefordshire.

The town of Droitwich was once a Victorian spa and lies over a subterranean brine reservoir with waters bouyant enough to keep a laden tea tray afloat.

Famous sons and daughters of Hereford and Worcester include Sir Edward Elgar, the composer, and John Masefield.
