This lengthy travelogue was produced by Worcestershire County Council to highlight the architectural and historical features of seven towns in the county. The leisurely tour during the summer of 1967 takes us from Malvern to Tenbury Wells and Bewdley in part one and then on to Stourport on Severn, Pershore, Evesham and Upton upon Severn in part two. The theme is the preservation of the heart of these towns, which, in the face of 1960s 'progress', felt very fragile indeed.
