Uncover history & charm

Tenbury has a variety of architectural styles ranging from 16th Century to new. St Mary’s Church is worth visiting found at the end of a winding path called Church Walk and there are several 17th century half-timbered buildings in the town, the most ornate is the Royal Oak, with the oldest probably being The Pembroke House. The Round Market was built for farmers’ wives to sell their cheese and milk on market days. Mineral Water wells that had been found in the Town from 1840 onwards brought about the building in 1862 of the now restored Tenbury Spa that has been described as “Chinese Gothic” and was designed by James Cranston of Birmingham.

Numerous public houses with accommodation and restaurants are spread along Teme Street and through the town giving an ample variety of choice to dine out or take away. An array of local shops run by independent traders including butchers, fish shop, hardware stores, gift shops, clothes shops and ceramics are to be located within the town. Also high street banks and a Post office can be found on Teme Street. There is a doctor’s surgery, dentists, vets practice, local garages and Tenbury Hospital is located on the outskirts of town.

There are many sports activities on offer including an 18 hole golf course at Cadmore Lodge, fishing in the River Teme, fishing Pools at Boraston, tennis, cricket, soccer, bowling clubs, rugby clubs and swimming in the local indoor pool and also having a fitness suite. There is also a town Library, Police Station, Fire Station, Tenbury Wells High School, Tenbury Wells Primary School and Burford Primary School.
