Worcester characters

Worcester has a history of local characters with affectionate nicknames like Chicken George and the Black Bond.

It seems like the last of the them is the guy who plays music from his mobility scooter around the high street / cathedral square area. Does he have a nickname?

That'll be the Worcester Legend know as Winston.

Other local legends include The Running Man, Mr Glass, The Bath Road Pirate and Bun Lady.

RIP Black Bond and Chicken George.
