Redditch

Redditch is a town in Worcestershire, England, just south of the West Midlands urban area. The district has a population of about 80,000 and is represented in Parliament by Jacqui Smith.

The first recorded mention of Redditch is in 1348, and it became a centre of needle-making. It was designated a new town in 1964, and expanded greatly.
