{{Short description|English ceremonial officer}} {{see also|History of Worcestershire}} {{Use British English|date=July 2017}} {{Use dmy dates|date=April 2018}} This is a '''list of sheriffs''' and since 1998 '''high sheriffs''' of Worcestershire.
The Sheriff is the oldest secular office under the Crown. Formerly the Sheriff was the principal law enforcement officer in the county but over the centuries most of the responsibilities associated with the post have been transferred elsewhere or are now defunct, so that its functions are now largely ceremonial. Under the provisions of the Local Government Act 1972, on 1 April 1974 the office previously known as Sheriff was retitled High Sheriff.
Under the same act Herefordshire and Worcestershire were merged to form the new county of Hereford and Worcester, therefore the office of '''Sheriff of Worcestershire''' was replaced by that of High Sheriff of Hereford and Worcester. However, in 1998 the new county was dissolved, restoring Herefordshire and Worcestershire and creating the offices of High Sheriff of Herefordshire and High Sheriff of Worcestershire.
