About

Bewdley West, Ribbesford & Far Forest sits along the River Severn where the town of Bewdley narrows to a stone bridge and a compact riverside centre. The Severn Valley Railway runs through Bewdley and the station there has both high and low level platforms, used by the heritage line and local volunteers. Narrow streets rise from the riverbank to terraces of shops, a museum by the gardens and a scattering of inns and cafés that face the water. Town events and market days still use the riverside open spaces and the quay area for small gatherings and river access.

Ribbesford lies immediately west of the town and includes Ribbesford House and its surrounding parkland, with lanes that thread between fields and copses. Far Forest occupies higher ground to the west, a village set among mixed woodland and pasture, with a cluster of local services and community buildings serving residents and walkers. Footpaths link farm tracks, green lanes and river-side routes, so daily life here often moves between cultivated land, managed woodland and the Severn’s floodplain.
