Objectives
Create an online map with the locations of all accessible industrial heritage sites and significant local history sites in Worcestershire.
Please note, the society is predominately focused on industrial heritage; therefore, we are limiting what local history sites we include in the map that are not industrial. For example, one could add every single historical church to the map; however, that would not be appropriate; therefore, we will include ecclesiastical sites of significant importance such as Worcester Cathedral and Malvern Priory.
Map
Here is our map so far, if you know of a site that is missing, you can contribute below.
