Droitwich
Droitwich Spa is a town in the north of the county of Worcestershire. Situated on the River Salwarpe containing substantial deposits of salt, the extraction of salt has been an exploit occurring since the ancient period. The natural Droitwich salt water contains 2 and a half pounds of salt per gallon, which is 10 times stronger than sea water. In the 19th century, John Corbett, the son of a Black Country barge owner, established the town's spa facilities after the decrease of the salt market. The Droitwich Spa Lido was an especially popular leisure attraction, which was created in the 1930s as a public outdoors salt water swimming pool. Although the Lido was closed in the late 1990s, upgrades in 2006 allowing the reopening of the centre in the summer of 2007 has permitted the Lido to continue as a pleasurable and attractive amusement. Droitwich is within Wychavon, a regional government district that was the only area in the Midlands to appear in the Halifax 'Quality of Life Survey' in 2011, which was ranked as Sixth overall. A variety of leisure activities are readily available for the growing 22585 residents recorded in the 2011 census. This consists of the options provided by the Droitwich Canal Network for walkers and cyclists, the large number of independent and high street merchants, as well as different markets regularly happening in the town. Celebrations take place throughout the year, and performances can be seen all year round at the Norbury Theatre. For all of your home upgrades, make sure to make use of trustworthy contractors in Droitwich Spa to make certain of quality.
