Worcestershire (pronounced wustasheer) is one of the smaller English counties, located in the West Midlands region. It is also the name of an administrative county. Other than the city of Worcester, and several large towns in the northern part of the county, the area is still largely rural. A large area of the county used to be devoted to fruit-growing and the cultivation of hops; this has decreased considerably since World War II, though in the southern area of the county, around the Vale of Evesham, there are still sufficient orchards that the British Automobile Association signposts a route (the "Blossom Trail") where the orchards can be seen in spring. The administrative headquarters is Worcester.
