Worcester is a town in Worcestershire, England. It is a non-metropolitan country. It is a junction point for Gloucester and Birmingham. It is a non-metropolitan district. River Severn flows to the west of the town Centre. The Population of the region is nearly 1 lakh. During civil war era, the Battle of Worchester was the last and most deadly war in the region.

Roman Ryknild Street was a trading route in New Stone age. During the 3rd century, most of the Worchester area lost to Roman Empire. Some area had become useless because of the silting of Diglis Basin. It also impacted the industrial production. St. Helen’s is the famous church of the region. The major devastation of the town did happen in 1041 after rebellion for taxation. The cloth industry boomed during the medieval era where 10000 population approximately shifted to this industry and ultimately hub for the corporate world. Worcester was the place of war when Charles II tried to regain the territory. Again he lost. Finally, he escaped to France to save his life. Worcester always fought for a parliamentarian form of government. During late 16th century, the Severn’s river banks got burst and it leads to heavy loss of property. During Second World War time, the role of the city was very prominent. It was termed as the safest evacuation route in case of the German forces invade. The Royal Worcester porcelain company puts off its services in 2009. The medical museum ‘’Infirmary’’ is constructed from old wards infrastructure in 2012.
