Worcestershire is a County in the [[West Midlands]] region of [[England]]. Despite lying directly to the south of [[Birmingham]], Englands industrial heartland, it is largely rural in character, with rolling countryside characterised by black and white timber framed cottages. The cathedral City of [[Worcester]], lies at the heart of the county. The [[Malvern Hills]] are an attractive area of the county, popular with walkers and they boast extensive views across the Midlands and as far as the Black Mountains in [[Wales]]. Principal towns and cities in the county include, [[Worcester]], [[Redditch]], [[Kidderminster]], [[Bromsgrove]] and [[Great Malvern]]. Worcestershire borders with [[Herefordshire]], [[Shropshire]], [[Staffordshire]], [[Warwickshire]], [[Gloucestershire]] and the former metropolitan county of the [[West Midlands]], which consists of some areas which were traditionally part of Worcestershire. Worcestershire sauce is a traditional vinegar-based British condiment manufactured by Lea & Perrin in the city of Worcester, and the city is also associated with the composer Sir Edward Elgar.
