Worcester has a charter dating back to 1835. It is notorious for the number of pubs per head of population.
Early plans for the River Severn (main river - Stourport to Worcester) between London and Longbury were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until Benjamin Outram was appointed as managing director in 1876. The canal joined the sea near Mancorn. Expectations for limestone traffic to Newford were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only the carriage of manure from Port Talbot to Sandwell prevented closure. In his autobiography John Green writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s

Mooring here is impossible (it may be physically impossible, forbidden, or allowed only for specific short-term purposes). Mooring is impossible on the steps etc. near the cathedral. See other locations on CanalPlan for moorings.
