Bewdley
Bewdley is a tiny waterfront community and civil church in the Wyre Forest District of Worcestershire on the Shropshire border in England, along the Severn Valley 3 miles (4.8 km) 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 popular vacationer location and is known for the Bewdley Bridge developed by Thomas Telford. The almost all of Bewdley town is situated on the western bank of the River Severn, consisting of the major road-- Load Street-- whose name stems from lode, an old word for ferry. Load Street is remarkable for its width: this is due to the fact that it when also functioned as the community's market place. Most of Bewdley's stores and amenities are situated along Load Street, at the top of which exists St Anne's Church, built between 1745 and 1748 by Doctor Thomas Woodward of Chipping Campden. Past the church, High Street leads off to the south towards Stourport along the B4194, a road understood locally as "the switchback" as a result of its lots of wavinesses. Unlike in many English towns, High Street is so called not as a result of its value, yet because of its geographical position 'high' above the river. On the other side of the church, Welch Gate (so called since it as soon as had a tollgate when driving towards Wales) climbs up outstanding as much as the west, while Dowles Road, a continuation of the B4194 leads northwest to Dowles and also in the direction of the Wyre Forest. To the northeast of the town is the wooded hill of Wassel Wood in Trimpley, the southerly terminus of Shatterford Hill. In the area in between Stourport and also Bewdley there are numerous large lodge, among which Witley Court, Astley Hall and Pool House are especially substantial.
