Kidderminster is the historic centre of the British carpet industry, where companies like Brintons still manufacture. The town is also the southern terminus of the Severn Valley Railway, one of the UK's finest heritage lines. Kidderminster has undergone significant regeneration around the Weavers Wharf canal-side development, and its diverse manufacturing base continues to evolve.
