10-02-2011 : Canal Boat Holiday in Worcester

Henry Sandon MBE of the Antique Roadshow will be visiting The Worcester Porcelain Museum on 26th February 2011.

Take the opportunity to watch him in action as he tells you about your own special treasures.

The museum is housed in Victorian buildings in the heart of the city of Worcester and is within walking distance of our marina.

At The Royal Worcester Visitor Centre a guide will take you around the Centre talking through techniques of past and present.

See the skilled artists and work and have a go at painting your own plate.

The shops stock a wide range of quality china, porcelain and gift ware with great savings and special offers throughout the year and the Seconds Shop offers a huge selection of quality seconds at greatly reduced prices.

World famous for its sauce the story begins in the 1800s when Lord Sandys returned home fro his trip to Bengal.

On his request the owners of a chemist shop John Lea and William Perrins tried to make the recipe he had required.

The Lea and Perrins brand was made commercially for the first time in 1837.

A closely guarded secret the recipe kept to this day and only know to the privileged few makes Worcester Sauce so unique.

In the famous Harry's New York Bar in Paris the Bloody Mary was born when the barman mixed vodka with tomato juice and a splash of Lee and Perrins.
