Tenbury Wells
Tenbury Wells (locally Tenbury) is a market community and also civil parish in the north-western extremity of the Malvern Hills Area of Worcestershire, England, which at the 2011 census had a population of 3,777. Tenbury Wells lies on the south financial institution of the River Teme, which forms the boundary between Shropshire and Worcestershire. It is in the north-west of the Malvern Hills Area. The settlement of Burford in Shropshire rests on the north financial institution of the river. From 1894 to 1974, it was a country district, comprising itself and towns such as Stoke Bliss, Eastham and Rochford. From 1974 Tenbury remained in the District of Leominster up until it became component Malvern Hills Area when Leominster District Council was taken over by Herefordshire Council in April 1998. For over 100 years Tenbury has been well known throughout the country for its wintertime auctions of holly as well as mistletoe (as well as other Xmas items). It is also understood for its "Chinese-gothic" Pump Room buildings, built in 1862, which reopened in 2001, adhering to a significant reconstruction. They are now owned by Tenbury Town Council, having been moved from Malvern Hills District Council in September 2008.
