Upton upon Severn in flood conditions
The Malvern Hills provides a good high-level viewpoint for flooding in the Severn valley south of Worcester. Here all the low-lying ground around Upton is under water with the village between the church and the 'pepper pot' just above the water line.

Plaque on Upton's School
The blue plaque is to George W. Jones, Printer Laureate (1860-1942) who attended this school between 1865 and 1871.
He left school early, aged only eleven, when orphaned.
In 1872 he joined the printers Ebenezer Baylis & Son Ltd of Worcester and, on 24 March 1873, he signed an indenture as a printing apprentice with the firm.
After working for several printers around Britain he set up his own business in London.
Jones designed and worked in one of the favoured typographic styles of the time, known somewhat affectedly as artistic printing.
Henry Lewis Bullen, the curator of the Typographic Library and Museum of the American Type Founders’ Company, described him as the ‘best all-round printer that Great Britain has ever produced’
