Take a trip down memory lane... 🛒

Who remembers shopping at Shuter and Flays?

Long before self-checkouts and online deliveries, grocers provided a truly personal touch. You’d sit on a high wooden stool while the shop assistant carefully collected your order from all around the store, weighed out your items, parcelled them up, and even arranged home delivery!

Do you or your family remember shopping at Shuter & Flays? We’d love to hear your memories in the comments below!

Everyone knows the Cathedral view, but Worcester’s charm is also hidden in the quiet corners.

From tucked-away cottage steps to secret historic alleyways, there’s so much to discover when you explore more of the City.

What’s your favourite quiet spot in town?

Lost in the grandeur of Worcester Cathedral, it’s easy to overlook some of the incredible details hidden within its walls, including the final resting place of King John, beneath the High Altar. 👑

King John may have been a controversial figure, but we can probably all agree that he chose a rather impressive place to rest.

✨ A king, a cathedral, and so much history beneath your feet.
