Fine footbridge across the brook that is part of the remains of an industrial settlement, now long gone.

Nice trail joining Wyre Forest to Bewdley

Very muddy in places and clearly frequented by the local horsey community cus it's covered in horse deposits

Always love a good trig point

Cofee break

Bewdley was once an important inland port, connecting Shrewsbury with the Midlands and the seaports of Gloucester and Bristol. Originally the quays were shorter and had slipways between them. In time, as more landing space was needed, the quayside walls were joined into one continuous length. The larger boats, known as Severn Trows, carried local goods such as rope and charcoal, metal goods from Birmingham and Staffordshire pottery to the south. They returned laden with woollen cloth, wine, spirits, tobacco, sugar, spices, citrus fruit and dried fish to be sold in market towns across the West Midlands and Welsh borders. This civic space was developed when the Environment Agency built the Town's new flood defences, and incorporates work by artist Elizabeth-Jane Grose. On the lower quayside you can find flowing words relating to the river and the vessels that worked on it. On the upper quayside have a look for the 'cargo-plates' recording forty of the common and less common exports and imports to the Port of Bewdley. Source: Environment Agency

Bewdley Bridge over the Severn was built in 1798 by Thomas Telford. It was erected to replace the 1483 medieval bridge that was swept away in the floods of 1795.

The toposcope got a refresh a few years back with a granite replica of the original Welsh slate top that had weathered back. Now you can clearly work out where you are in relation to New York again! New York is a bit too far off on the horizon, but with the vantage that the 164m high point affords you, you will be treated to views of the Clent Hills, Shatterford Hill, Dudley, Wenlock Edge, Malvern Hills and the Shropshire Hills.
