Tenbury Wells has an interesting position on the borders of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Shropshire. Located in the town is the Teme Bridge, an ancient stone structure that marks the boundaries between Worcestershire and Shropshire.
For centuries Tenbury has been known as ‘The Town in the Orchard’ because of its location in the Teme Valley, which is famous for its hops, fruit, holly and mistletoe. Visitors are welcome to the annual Applefest and Mistletoe Festival held each year to celebrate the harvests.
As the ‘Wells’ in the name suggests Tenbury also boasts natural springs (saline) and has an ornate pump room that is classed as ‘Chinese Gothic’ in design, it is also one of the earliest examples of a prefabricated building.
