Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Pershore is the self-proclaimed "capital of the plum", a tribute to the tradition of plum orchards in the area. The town grew up around the abbey founded here in 689 by St. Oswald, and it is the abbey church that is the feature of greatest interest for most visitors.
