A delightful old market town
lying on the banks of the stunning River Teme,
Tenbury was briefly a spa town before the fashion
for bathing in mineral water dried up in the 19th
century. Queen Victoria called it “my lovely town
in the orchard”. It is still surrounded by
orchards and hop fields. Among many interesting
buildings – some of which are half-timbered - is
the Royal Oak Inn dating from the Tudor period.
The town’s 18th century church possesses a 12th
century tower as well as effigies and a number of
tombs. Nearby Burford House holds the National
Collection of Clematis.
