Lord Lieutenant of Hereford and Worcester

The office of Lord-Lieutenant of Hereford and Worcester was created when the county of Hereford and Worcester was formed in 1974 through the merger of the former counties (and lieutenancy areas) of Herefordshire and Worcestershire. It was abolished in 1998 when Herefordshire and Worcestershire reverted into two separate ceremonial counties.
