Elgar Birthplace Museum Review

The composer Sir Edward Elgar was born in the village of Lower Broadheath—on B4204, 2 miles west of Worcester and 8 miles north of Great Malvern—in this tiny brick cottage. Set in a peaceful little garden, the museum contains personal memorabilia, and the Elgar Centre exhibits photographs, musical scores, and letters.
