Droning on about Droitwich

Yesterday’s visit to Droitwich was a fine example of how a town should be. There was a ring road with shops in the centre, surrounded by footpaths and underpasses so that pedestrians could still go about their daily lives. There’s no end of convenience stores or pubs in the residential areas for those essential supplies. However, although there were some shops with big high street brands; it’s not somewhere you’d go for a bit of shopping. As the town is quite small; there’s only really room for a small stretch of shops. The fact that there are two large medical buildings is something of an overkill. But it is a community town that always has something on; whether it’s an empty shop hosting a book sale or local art gallery; or the fact that you can pop down for a nice stroll alongside the canal. It is a medieval town that I would very much like to visit some more to explore its history.
