Bewdley is a tiny waterfront community as well as civil church in the Wyre Forest District of Worcestershire on the Shropshire border in England, along the Severn Valley 3 miles (4.8 kilometres) west of Kidderminster and 22 miles (35 km) southwest of Birmingham. [1] It rests on the River Severn, at the gateway of the Wyre Forest national nature reserve, as well as at the time of the 2011 census had a population of 9,470. Bewdley is a preferred vacationer location and is known for the Bewdley Bridge made by Thomas Telford. The main part of Bewdley town is located on the western bank of the River Severn, including the major road– Load Street– whose name derives from lode, an old word for ferry. Load Street is significant for its size: this is due to the fact that it once likewise functioned as the community’s market location. A lot of Bewdley’s stores and also amenities are positioned along Load Street, on top of which exists St Anne’s Church, built between 1745 as well as 1748 by Doctor Thomas Woodward of Chipping Campden. Past the church, High Street leads off to the south in the direction of Stourport along the B4194, a road understood locally as “the switchback” because of its several undulations. Unlike in several English towns, High Street is so called not because of its significance, but as a result of its geographical setting ‘high’ over the river. Beyond of the church, Welch Gate (so called because it once consisted of a tollgate on the road towards Wales) climbs up steeply up to the west, while Dowles Road, an extension of the B4194 leads northwest to Dowles and also in the direction of the Wyre Forest. To the northeast of the town is the woody hill of Wassel Wood in Trimpley, the southern terminus of Shatterford Hill. In the area in between Stourport as well as Bewdley there are several big country houses, among which Witley Court, Astley Hall and Swimming pool Home are specifically substantial.
