 | Friar Street, in the centre of Worcester Built in 1480 by Thomas Greene, a wealthy Worcester brewer, next to a Francisican monastery. A good example of the medieval timber-framed buildings that once housed the more prosperous citizens of Worcester. It was rescued from demolition by the Worcester Archaeological Society. In the great hall there are 16th century tapestries and 17th century furniture. Outside, an archway leads through to a charming garden. The Greyfriars is now in the care of the National Trust. more information |
 | 2.5 miles east of Droitwich, off B4090 Built in the 1701 for Thomas Vernon by William Rudhal. Hanbury also has an unusual detached long gallery containing some Jacobean panelling from the original house purchased in 1631 by Thomas Vernon's grandfather. Most of the original contents of Hanbury disappeared in a sale of 1790, so most of the contents were brought in by the National Trust. The Hall is set in 400 acres of parkland and garden. more information |
