Bewdley
The peaceful riverside setting and the beautiful mix of unspoilt
buildings make Bewdley a piece of living history.
Dominated by St Anne's church and Thomas Telford's bridge,
Bewdley is a pretty and peaceful Georgian town, much as it was in
the 18th Century. In Bewdley there is an award winning museum
with daily demonstrations of traditional crafts and special
exhibitions.
For a fun filled family day out visit the nearby West Midland
Safari and Leisure Park. Drive around in the comfort of your
own car or go on a guided safari bus, don't miss the rare white
tigers and white lions. The Safari park has also added
Cheetahs to its collection of African wild animals.
Nearby is the Wyre Forest, one of the largest surviving areas of
ancient semi natural woodland left in Great Britain. The Forest has
an attractive visitor centre, forest walks and an all ability
trail.
Alternatively you can sit back and relax on the Severn Valley
Railway, let the train take the strain as you embark on a 16 mile
journey in steam-hauled splendour between Kidderminster and
Bridgnorth with superb views of the River Severn en route.
