The Leigh Brook (pronounced Lie locally), is a fine small river that drains the hills just to the north of the Malverns and flows down to meet the Teme to the west of Worcester.

This is a delightful corner of Worcestershire. It is possible to do a circular walk along the bank of the Leigh Brook, and then back up the hill and through the woodland. Very pleasant way to while away of couple of hours or more!

There are some lovely places to stop and just look on and around the Malvern Hills, and this is one of them.

Nice!

Until the 20th century, it was the only bridge across River Severn from Tewkesbury to Worcester. Now, it's a well-surfaced bridge with Severn Way going perpendicular to it.

A very attractive building that appears more recent than it actually is (consecrated in 1879). Inside, the most immediate striking feature is The Corona above the nave altar - a circle of eight winged 'spirit figures'. Various alterations to the layout and function of the different areas have been made over the years and there are items from the old church (that this one replaced) and others. A lovely place to spend time in quiet contemplation.

Until the later half of the 20th century, the bridge at Upton was the only one across the River Severn between Worcester and Tewkesbury; the present bridge was built in 1940. Oliver Cromwell's soldiers crossed the Severn here to win the battle of Upton before the main Battle of Worcester in the English Civil War.
