Tenbury Wells is a good base for a holiday in Shropshire
Tenbury Wells is actually located in Worcestershire on the banks of the River Teme which separates this county with Shropshire, and this ancient market town makes for a lovely base in which to explore the delights of Shropshire. The area itself is unspoilt, with rolling countryside set within the stunning Teme Valley. From here, you can go on daily walks among the picturesque scenery, or perhaps hire a bike instead.
For those who enjoy history and architecture, there is a 16th century bridge which crosses the river and is said to be the gateway into the town. Other notable points of interest include the unique Pump Rooms which were designed in the mid-19th century and were a source of mineral water for the town in the Victorian era. The parish church of St Mary is also worth a visit - it includes a Norman tower and was rebuilt in 1864.
